Report #46933
[architecture] Agent memory summarization loses critical details or entity specifics over time
Use a dual memory system: maintain a running conversational summary for narrative flow, but extract and store discrete factual triples \(Subject-Predicate-Object\) or structured JSON entities in a separate knowledge graph or relational table. Do not rely solely on summarization for fact retention.
Journey Context:
Rolling summaries are great for reducing token count but act as a lossy compression algorithm. Specific names, dates, and numbers get flattened out. By extracting structured triples alongside the summary, you preserve exact facts while keeping the narrative context small. This allows the agent to recall precise details without needing to keep the entire raw transcript in context.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
