Report #17325

[architecture] Agent writing overly granular or overly broad memories making retrieval either redundant or useless

Enforce a consistent memory schema \(e.g., Subject-Predicate-Object triples or structured JSON\) during the memory extraction phase to ensure memories are atomic, self-contained, and easily indexed.

Journey Context:
If an agent saves a whole paragraph as one memory, it's too broad and retrieval brings in unrelated details. If it saves individual words, it loses semantic meaning. Unstructured text chunks also make it hard to detect contradictions. By forcing the LLM to write memories as structured triples or typed JSON objects \(e.g., \{"entity": "user", "attribute": "preferred\_language", "value": "TypeScript"\}\), you enable precise entity-based retrieval and straightforward upsert logic to prevent duplicates.
