[architecture] Cross-session state leakage where memories from one user/project bleed into another

Enforce strict namespace or tenant isolation at the memory storage level. Use composite IDs for memory retrieval \(e.g., user\_id \+ project\_id \+ memory\_id\) and apply mandatory metadata filters on every retrieval query to scope access to the current session context.

Journey Context:
When building multi-tenant agents, developers often rely on the vector database's global similarity search without strict pre-filtering. This leads to catastrophic privacy leaks where Agent A retrieves Agent B's facts. Vector similarity doesn't respect logical boundaries. The tradeoff is that strict metadata filtering can slow down vector searches and requires careful index design, but it is an absolute necessity for multi-tenant deployments.
