Report #5493

[architecture] Assuming a single vector search pass is sufficient to recall complex, multi-step solutions

Use the agent's LLM to generate multiple targeted search queries, or retrieve an initial memory and use it to formulate a second query \(multi-hop retrieval\).

Journey Context:
A single query often fails because the user's prompt asks for X, but X depends on Y, and Y is indexed under completely different terminology. Multi-hop allows the agent to follow the dependency graph in the memory store, bridging the vocabulary gap between the prompt and the stored data, which single-hop similarity search cannot resolve.
