# Search Memories Vector

`GET /v1/dev/user/memories/vector/search`

Search developer-readable default memory memory through hydrated vector candidates.

This narrow developer API vector endpoint fails closed unless the authenticated
Developer API app/key has a verified memories.read scope and a persisted app/key
default-read grant. Vector hits are hydrated through the universal repository
against authoritative
`users/{uid}/memory_items` before returning results, so stale Short-term and
Archive remain unavailable by default.

- `query` string, required
- `limit` integer

## Response `200`
