Report #35203

[frontier] Agent memory conflicts when multiple agents write contradictory facts to shared vector storage

Adopt hierarchical memory zones separating episodic \(agent-specific\) from semantic \(shared\) layers, implementing vector-based conflict detection with temporal versioning and explicit merge strategies.

Journey Context:
Flat vector search fails when Agent A writes 'price: $10' and Agent B writes 'price: $20'. Simple RAG retrieves both, confusing the LLM. The fix is tiered memory: working memory \(recent turns\), episodic memory \(agent-specific experiences with timestamps\), and semantic memory \(shared facts with conflict resolution\). When semantic similarity detects divergence above a threshold, the system triggers a reconciliation workflow rather than blind retrieval.
