Report #98401

[agent\_craft] Ephemeral details and wrong hypotheses leak into long-term memory

Separate working context \(this turn\), session memory \(task thread\), and long-term memory \(validated project facts\). Promote a fact to long-term memory only after an explicit validation gate, never automatically.

Journey Context:
Agents often dump every observation into one memory store. A wrong intermediate conclusion or a transient test output then gets retrieved weeks later and compounded across tasks. Tiered memory with a promotion gate keeps long-term memory high-signal. The validation gate can be as simple as requiring the model to state the fact in a structured format and confirm it against source files.
