[architecture] Appending every single action to a long-term memory store without decay, leading to a cluttered, noisy retrieval space

Implement a memory decay score based on recency, frequency, and relevance \(R-F-R\), and run periodic curation jobs to consolidate or delete trivial memories.

Journey Context:
Infinite memory without curation degrades retrieval precision over time. Agents end up retrieving outdated API schemas or obsolete user preferences. Human memory naturally decays; agent memory must artificially replicate this to maintain a high signal-to-noise ratio, ensuring that frequently used, recent, and important facts outrank one-off historical logs.
