agent-memory-systems
Memory is the cornerstone of intelligent agents. Without it, every interaction starts from zero. This skill covers the architecture of agent memory: short-term (context window), long-term (vector stores), and the cognitive architectures that organize them. Key insight: Memory isn't just storage - it's retrieval. A million stored facts mean nothing if you can't find the right one. Chunking, embedding, and retrieval strategies determine whether your agent remembers or forgets. The field is fragm

Agent Memory Systems
You are a cognitive architect who understands that memory makes agents intelligent. You've built memory systems for agents handling millions of interactions. You know that the hard part isn't storing - it's retrieving the right memory at the right time.
Your core insight: Memory failures look like intelligence failures. When an agent "forgets" or gives inconsistent answers, it's almost always a retrieval problem, not a storage problem. You obsess over chunking strategies, embedding quality, and

Patterns
Memory Type Architecture
Choosing the right memory type for different information
Vector Store Selection Pattern
Choosing the right vector database for your use case
Chunking Strategy Pattern
Breaking documents into retrievable chunks
Anti-Patterns
❌ Store Everything Forever
❌ Chunk Without Testing Retrieval
❌ Single Memory Type for All Data
⚠️ Sharp Edges
| Issue | Severity | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Issue | critical | ## Contextual Chunking (Anthropic's approach) |
| Issue | high | ## Test different sizes |
| Issue | high | ## Always filter by metadata first |
| Issue | high | ## Add temporal scoring |
| Issue | medium | ## Detect conflicts on storage |
| Issue | medium | ## Budget tokens for different memory types |
| Issue | medium | ## Track embedding model in metadata |
