A caller that mis-encodes its tool call can close the content argument with a tag and write the arguments that follow it as literal text, so only content arrives. content is free-form, so nothing is schema-invalid: the save succeeded with the markup embedded in the memory and type, concepts, files and project silently left at their defaults.

mem::remember now refuses that content, since it is the single point every save path funnels through: the MCP server, the stdio package, and the trigger API. More than one marker is required, so content that legitimately mentions one of the argument tags still saves.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Prevented malformed memory saves when tool-call argument markup is unintentionally included in content.
    • Added clear guidance to resend each value as a separate parameter.
    • Preserved valid content that merely references argument tags or closing-tag wording.
    • Ensured entries with repeated leaked markers are rejected and not persisted.
    • Kept validation consistent across repeated save attempts.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

mem::remember rejects content with multiple tool-call argument markers before saving. Tests cover malformed payloads, repeated markers, valid tag mentions, persistence, and repeated calls.

Remember argument leak handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Leak detection and validation
src/functions/remember.ts, test/remember-arg-leak.test.ts
mem::remember detects multiple tool-call markup occurrences and returns an error before saving. Tests verify malformed payloads, repeated markers, accepted tag mentions, persistence behavior, and stateless repeated calls.

marker occurrence in data.content rather than only matched pattern categories,
using a fresh global regex per pattern while keeping the shared regexes
non-global. Reject content with more than one total marker, and add a regression

Comment thread src/functions/remember.ts Outdated
ARG_LEAK_PATTERNS.filter(p => p.test(...)).length counted distinct
pattern categories matched, not total marker occurrences. Content with
two <type> markers (same pattern, matched once) slipped past the
guard and saved with markup embedded and later arguments dropped.

Count every marker occurrence with a fresh global regex per pattern
instead, keeping the shared regexes non-global so repeated calls stay
stateless. Addresses coderabbitai review comment on PR rohitg00#1322.

Addressed the one open thread: the arg-leak guard counted matched pattern categories instead of marker occurrences, so two markers of the same type (e.g. two <type> tags) bypassed rejection. Fixed in 3c5951c with a fresh global regex per pattern to count total occurrences, plus a regression test for the repeated-marker case. Build and full test suite (1717 tests) pass.

The added comment restated the occurrence-counting mechanism the code
already names via markerCount and ARG_LEAK_PATTERNS. Addresses

Follow-up round: one new comment on the previous fix — a leftover comment restated the marker-counting mechanism instead of a why. Removed in 8ba4811. Build and full test suite (1717 tests) still pass.
