description: "The \"typography palace\" — masters of type (Bringhurst, Tschichold, Hochuli, Lupton, Sousa…) live in a dedicated MemPalace at ~/.mempalace/palace-chamber-typography. Query it with CLI tools, NOT the MCP tools (which point at palace-memory)."

When ARC typography work needs the masters' prescription (setting verse, block quotes, hyphenation, measure, etc.), the source-of-truth is a **dedicated MemPalace palace we built for exactly this**: a small curated collection (~20-21 sources — Bringhurst *Elements*, Tschichold *Form of the Book*, Lupton *Thinking with Type*, Sousa *Ortografía y ortotipografía del español*, and more).
**Location:** `~/.mempalace/palace-chamber-typography` (wing `chamber_typography`, room `general`).
**Query method — CLI, not MCP.** The MCP `mempalace_*` tools point at `palace-memory` (our session/working memory), NOT this palace. To search the typographers, use the CLI with `--palace`:
```bash
mempalace --palace ~/.mempalace/palace-chamber-typography search "your keywords here"
mempalace --palace ~/.mempalace/palace-chamber-typography status
```
The binary is `/opt/homebrew/bin/mempalace`. CLI subcommands: init, mine, sweep, sync, search, compress, wake-up, split, hook, instructions, repair, repair-status, mcp, migrate, status. (Search hits show source file + cosine/bm25 — go to the named `*.md` source for the full passage.)
This is NOT the chamber-library (`~/_Dev/chamber-library`, the larger reading corpus) — it is a separate, small, purpose-built typography palace. Don't conflate them. Steward's standing instruction (2026-06-02): for typography queries of this kind, use this palace via CLI — don't ask where it lives again.
