Show HN: Limma – MCP for total recall and precision in data retrieval for agents
Hello, my name is Berend Graham. My cofounder Shiv Oberai and I have been working on Limma for a year now with the goal of building a proactive solution to the reliability issues that plague practical AI and agentic use in companies with RAG. Limma is a single MCP that exists for the sole purpose of ensuring that the right information is retrieved with every query and no information is skipped and or missed. This means total precision and recall. We've found that this approach leads to the lowes

Version & cost evidence
Source votes: 2 votes (Oct 27, 2026 UTC; cumulative since publication); previous same-scope observation: 2 (Oct 27, 2026 UTC). These observations do not establish demand growth. Recent records to compare: “Show HN: A Modern Agentic LaTeX Editor” (Hacker News, Nov 5, 2026); “Show HN: Northmeadow – encrypted shared memory for local AI agents and people” (Hacker News, Nov 5, 2026). Shared themes are navigation hints; they have not been verified as the same need or independent corroboration.
Who is affected
Identify the existing workflow this change affects before recommending an upgrade. Launch attention does not establish improvement; an API, pricing or availability change may instead create migration work.
Missing comparison points
Missing checks: old versus new behavior, affected plans and regions, availability date, compatibility, rollback path and cost under the same workload.
Migration check
Save the release or policy notice, run the same task on the old and new option, and compare outputs and the full bill. For retirement notices, verify the deadline before scheduling migration.
