[architecture] Using pure vector similarity to retrieve past plans for a new coding task

Combine semantic similarity with exact keyword/structural matching \(hybrid search\) and store task outcomes \(success/failure\) alongside the memory to filter out previously failed approaches.

Journey Context:
'I need to refactor the database' might retrieve 'refactor the API' because they are semantically close, but the steps are completely different. Vector search alone lacks structural understanding. Hybrid search \(BM25 \+ Vector\) captures exact names/identifiers. Furthermore, if you don't remember that a past plan failed, you will repeat it. Adding outcome metadata allows you to filter out negative examples.
