Report #95850

[architecture] Storing raw conversational transcripts as the sole source of long-term memory, leading to high token waste and low retrieval precision.

Separate memory into Episodic \(summarized past interactions\) and Semantic \(extracted facts/preferences\). During off-boarding or session end, run an LLM extraction step to convert raw Episodic context into structured Semantic memory, deleting the raw transcript.

Journey Context:
Raw transcripts contain filler, pleasantries, and redundant info. Searching them yields chunks of conversation rather than actionable facts. By extracting facts \(e.g., 'User deployment target is AWS us-east-1'\), you compress the memory, improve retrieval precision, and reduce noise. This mirrors human cognitive separation of episodic vs. semantic memory.
