[architecture] Saving trivial tool outputs and filling memory with noise

Apply an 'importance' scoring step before writing to long-term memory. Only persist memories that score above a threshold \(e.g., user preferences, critical errors\) and discard standard tool acknowledgments.

Journey Context:
If an agent saves the output of every 'ls', 'pwd', or standard API 200 OK response, its memory store rapidly fills with low-signal noise, diluting future retrieval. The tradeoff is the cost of an LLM call to evaluate importance vs. the cost of degraded retrieval from noise. Explicitly filtering what to remember is essential for scalable memory.
