TLDR
As autonomous LLM agents are deployed across multi-session environments, conventional memory architectures suffer from Associative Blindness (inability to traverse multi-hop relational dependencies), Scaffolding Amnesia (temporal decay evicting core persona invariants), and Static Topology Stagnation (immutable graphs ignoring usage dynamics). Grounded in Complementary Learning Systems (CLS) principles, we propose EngramRAG, an adaptive memory architecture coupling a low-latency Waking State reflex with an asynchronous background Dreaming State consolidation cycle. EngramRAG introduces: (1) Us
