[architecture] Agent fails to synthesize high-level insights from low-level memories over time

Implement a periodic background 'reflection' process that synthesizes multiple low-level semantic memories into higher-level, abstract insights, storing them as new memories.

Journey Context:
An agent might accumulate hundreds of low-level facts \('user fixed bug X on Tuesday', 'user refactored module Y on Wednesday'\). While individually true, they fail to capture the higher-level insight \('user is doing a major refactoring sprint this week'\). Without a reflection/consolidation step, the agent cannot answer abstract questions about long-term trends. A background task that periodically clusters and summarizes low-level memories into high-level insights enables multi-scale reasoning.
