Report #2372
[architecture] Overwriting past memory state instead of appending new state
Architect agent memory as an append-only event stream \(Event Sourcing\) rather than an updatable state dictionary.
Journey Context:
State dictionaries overwrite past values, losing the history of how the agent arrived at a state. Append-only streams preserve causality and allow the agent to reconstruct temporal sequences. If an agent overwrites 'file status: draft' with 'file status: published', it forgets the draft ever existed, which breaks debugging and rollback capabilities.
