Report #9772

[architecture] Agent saving every conversational utterance directly to long-term memory creating massive retrieval noise

Implement an asynchronous memory consolidation step. Do not write raw utterances to the vector store. Instead, use an LLM call to extract distinct, atomic facts or insights from the conversation, and store only those synthesized embeddings.

Journey Context:
When agents save every user message verbatim, the vector store rapidly fills with high-entropy, redundant noise. Retrieval then pulls back conversational garbage instead of actionable knowledge. The tradeoff is added latency and compute for the consolidation LLM call versus storage efficiency and retrieval accuracy. Extracting atomic facts before writing ensures the memory store remains a high-signal knowledge base rather than a chat log.
