Report #1529

[architecture] Saving raw conversation logs as memory makes cross-session retrieval noisy and computationally expensive

Extract semantic triples or structured facts from episodic memory \(conversation logs\) at the end of a session, and store only the distilled semantic memory for future sessions.

Journey Context:
Storing raw chat history is the default for persistence, but it is incredibly inefficient for future retrieval. The agent has to re-read the whole log to find a preference. The tradeoff is loss of nuance \(distillation\) vs. retrieval efficiency. Distilling to semantic facts \(e.g., 'User prefers dark mode'\) allows instant, high-signal retrieval in the next session without polluting the context with pleasantries.
