Report #77496

[architecture] Agent retrieves a highly similar but irrelevant old memory overriding current specific constraints

Apply a strict temporal boundary or task-ID namespace filter to memory retrieval. When executing a new task, isolate the retrieval scope to prevent 'bleed-over' from past distinct tasks.

Journey Context:
Vector similarity is oblivious to task context. If a user asks to 'write a python script to parse CSVs' and later asks to 'write a rust script to parse CSVs', naive RAG will pull the Python code and confuse the LLM. Task-scoping the vector store queries prevents the agent from repeating old solutions that contradict new parameters.
