[research] Agent evals are stateless and don't catch regressions in multi-turn state management or memory retrieval

Build multi-turn conversational eval datasets that test state mutations, ensuring the agent correctly references earlier context rather than just single-shot zero-shot prompts.

Journey Context:
Most eval suites test agents with a single prompt and expect a single response. But agents fail most often in multi-turn scenarios where they forget the user's initial constraints or fail to update their internal state. You need regression suites that simulate a sequence of user interactions and verify the agent's memory and state at each step, not just the final answer.
