Memory tiered by scope and lifetime
Short-lived task memory, long-lived session memory, and shared organizational memory live in different stores with different policies — and the agent retrieves the right slice automatically.
Dumping everything into the prompt doesn't scale. Real memory means different stores for different time horizons, and a retrieval layer that assembles the right context for each step — without making it the agent's problem.
The three tiers
- 01
Task memory
What's happened in the current run. Ephemeral, cheap, scoped to the request.
- 02
Session memory
Conversation-level state that persists across turns with a user. Bounded, consent-gated, expiring.
- 03
Organizational memory
Shared knowledge the whole platform can draw on — governed, citable, and updated via deliberate pipelines.
Capabilities
Scoped retrieval
The agent gets the slice it needs, not the entire corpus stuffed into a prompt.
Consent and retention
Session memory is governed by explicit retention windows and user consent — not 'keep it all'.
Provenance
Every recalled fact carries its source and timestamp. Claims are citable.
Contradiction handling
When memory contradicts live data, the agent is instructed to prefer the live source and flag the drift.
