[architecture] Agent saving useless conversational filler to long-term memory

Use a memory extraction function that explicitly filters out pleasantries, acknowledgments, and task-adjacent chatter, saving only structured semantic triples or key-value pairs representing user intent, preferences, or factual entities.

Journey Context:
Developers often embed and store the raw user/assistant message pairs. This wastes embedding storage and retrieval space on 'Hello' and 'Sure, I can do that.' Memory should be treated as a schema-defined database. Extracting structured data at the time of ingestion ensures the memory store remains high-signal and easily queryable without relying on the LLM to parse raw dialogue during retrieval. It separates the act of understanding from the act of recalling.
