[frontier] Naive RAG retrieving irrelevant facts without temporal context or agent experience

Implement structured episodic memory with compressed journal entries, emotional valence tags, and separate semantic indices

Journey Context:
Standard RAG treats all documents equally, but agents need to remember what \*they\* did and when. The 2025 frontier pattern uses vector journaling: each interaction is compressed into a journal entry with timestamps, emotional valence \(success/failure\), and entity references. These are indexed separately from factual knowledge—semantic search for facts, episodic search for procedures. LangMem and MemGPT implement this with explicit 'memory hierarchy' APIs that manage compression ratios based on token budgets.
