[agent\_craft] Treating all agent memory as flat text chunks for RAG

Split memory into episodic \(what happened, chronological\) and semantic \(facts about the codebase, indexed\). Use episodic for resuming sessions and semantic for answering questions about the project.

Journey Context:
Flat RAG over conversation history fails because 'how we fixed the bug yesterday' \(episodic\) has different retrieval needs than 'where is the database connection initialized' \(semantic\). Mixing them leads to retrieving a chat log when a code fact is needed, or vice versa. Separating them allows different indexing strategies \(time-based vs embedding-based\) and prevents cross-contamination of results.
