How OmegaVault works
Every memory in OmegaVault moves through three stages — capture, structure, and sync. Understanding this lifecycle is the key to getting the most out of the platform.
The three stages
OmegaVault is not a chat log. Each memory enters as raw context, is structured into a reusable unit, then synced back out to every client you've connected. The cycle repeats every time you have a conversation.
1. Capture
Capture is how conversations, notes, and links become memories. Three ways:
- Automatic — connected clients (Claude, ChatGPT) emit conversation events; OmegaVault ingests them in the background.
- Manual — type or paste a note into the Capture screen.
- Programmatic — POST to the API or write over MCP from any client.
See Capture for the details.
2. Structure
Raw context is useless without structure. OmegaVault parses each new memory, extracts entities, and slots it into a memory record with tags, source attribution, and timestamps. Memories live in collections — project or topic buckets you control.
3. Sync
Once structured, your memory is available to every client you've authorized. Sync runs over MCP — when a connected client asks a question, OmegaVault semantically retrieves the relevant memories and returns them in context. Two-way sync means changes made in one place propagate everywhere.
Why MCP matters
The Model Context Protocol is OmegaVault's native transport. Because we speak MCP, we don't ship a separate adapter for each AI client — any MCP-compatible tool can read and write the same vault. Connect once, recall everywhere.

- Core concepts — memories, collections, connectors, MCP.
- Getting started — capture your first memory.
- Sync — how memories flow between clients.
Your memory is yours.
Capture once, carry everywhere.
