  version: 0.0.0
  description: 'System of record for spaced recall. One service with four doors: MCP at POST /mcp (also /api/mcp), Markdown /api/v1/agent and /api/v1/dev, and JSON /api/v1. Agents may use whatever works best. None is deprecated. JSON operations sit at the /api/v1 root (/due, /decks, /reviews). Request bodies are JSON. Markdown responses use Content-Type text/plain; the body is Markdown. MCP is stateless Streamable HTTP. Send Authorization: Bearer . No Mcp-Session-Id. The same MCP door speaks the ChatGPT MCP Events subset (events/list, events/subscribe, events/unsubscribe) with webhook-only delivery. Muse bootstraps a personal API token with POST /accounts or POST /bootstrap and keeps drilling. The bearer token is the tenant. This API decides what is due and when it is due next. Bootstrap, reviews, and unauthenticated reads are rate limited. HTTP 429 is retryable. ---'

      summary: Archive a deck
      description: Write. Soft-archive a deck this token owns. Body may be {}. Sets archivedAt. Cards, schedules, and past reviews stay. listDecks omits the deck unless includeArchived=true. listDue, session queues, and upcoming-new skip its cards. Reveal, get, patch, a new review, and inventory return 404, the same as another token's deck. A second call returns the original archivedAt and alreadyArchived true. There is no idempotency key. Another token's deck is 404. unarchiveDeck clears archivedAt without rewriting schedule fields.

Retrieve responses (listDue, upcoming-new, inventory, getCard, reveal, and agent session start/next/grade) include deckNote and cardNote so one call carries coaching context. Scripture / dictation: The learner needs every word remembered correctly, but often answers via dictation where punctuation gets messy. They set a deck note instructing the agent to check every word exactly, but not fail on punctuation differences, and to include that reason when coaching. This is only an example — notes can be any coaching preference for how agents should quiz/coach for that deck (or a specific card).'
