Every agent. One line.

Ela speaks MCP, the protocol agents already use. Add it once and Grok, Grok Bot, Cursor, Codex, Claude, and the next thing you adopt all read the same notes and get the same answers.

Answers with receipts.

Every hit names the note, the heading, the date, and a score. Coverage says what was searched and what was skipped. A miss says so instead of guessing.
