Report #6795

[architecture] Vector retrieval fails to connect related facts across different memories \(multi-hop reasoning\)

Store memories as a Knowledge Graph \(entities and relations\) alongside the vector store. When retrieving, do graph traversal \(e.g., 1-2 hops\) from the initially retrieved entities to gather adjacent context, rather than relying solely on vector similarity.

Journey Context:
Vector embeddings compress meaning into a single vector. 'Fido likes bones' and 'My dog is Fido' might not have high cosine similarity to 'What does my dog like?'. Graph RAG or hybrid retrieval solves this by explicitly modeling the relationships that LLMs struggle to piece together from disjointed text chunks.
