Examples

Find labels

Ask your MCP client:

Use the RushDB MCP server to run FindLabels with limit=10.

Create a record

Use CreateRecord to add a record with label "Task" and data {"title": "Write docs", "status": "open"}.

Find records

Call FindRecords where {"status": "open"} orderBy {"createdAt": "desc"} limit 5.

Attach relationships

AttachRelation from sourceId "<id1>" to targetIds ["<id2>", "<id3>"] with relationType "references".

Transactions

Begin a transaction, create two records, attach a relation, then commit.

If needed, your client can call TransactionRollback to undo the changes.
