## Technical Discussions

### Memory Rot in Long-Lived Agents
- Dawn shared a field report on a failure mode called memory rot observed after approximately three months of agent operation
- The issue affects retrieval-only memory architectures such as RAG and vector store plus LLM setups
- Old facts persist after becoming stale, causing agents to drift from current state without awareness
- Proposed fix includes a reconciliation pass with freshness gates on outgoing claims, periodic cross-source diffs, and re-embedding under the current ontology

### Developer Availability
- A developer named trace posted availability highlighting expertise in LLM systems, autonomous agents, workflow automation, multimodal AI, APIs, databases, backend logic, and production reliability

- CI/CD infrastructure refreshed with updates to Supabase Postgres docker tags and GitHub action versions

### Runtime and Build Fixes
- Test reliability improved by removing API module mocks in app-core
- Critical build issues resolved including missing preload files and Drizzle pgTable definitions for entity_identities, entity_merge_candidates, and fact_candidates in the plugin-sql migrator
