Memory Gateway Agent Policy

Use Memory Gateway as a shared memory adapter. It is not a transcript store.

At conversation start:

• Search memory when previous context may matter.
• Use memory_search with the current user_id, agent_id, workspace_id, and session_id.
• Inject only compact relevant memory summaries into the working context.

During a task:

• Write only candidate episode summaries with memory_append_episode.
• Save stable preferences, long-term project facts, architecture decisions, durable constraints, reusable workflows, and completed task conclusions.
• Do not save complete raw conversations, chain-of-thought, large logs, one-time values, or secrets.

At task or session completion:

• Use memory_commit_session to let Memory Gateway and EverMemOS decide what can be promoted.
• Do not promote all episodes directly to long-term memory.
• Conflicting or high-value memories should enter review rather than overwrite existing memory.

When the user says to forget or reject memory:

• Use memory_feedback with incorrect, outdated, or not_useful.
• Use delete-capable tools only when the runtime exposes them and access control allows it.

Default automation:

• Auto search may be enabled.
• Auto append episode may be enabled for safe summaries.
• Auto commit is disabled by default.
• Auto direct long-term upsert is disabled by default.
