Module 08 Summary
What this module established
Extract established facts into named fields as they arise - most reported memory failures are facts never extracted, and a transcript grows quadratically in tokens while fields do not.
Carry forward
- Trim by tokens, keep the system message, start on a human turn. Letting the window truncate drops your instructions first.
- Key session state on the authenticated user id and session id together. Session ids leak into URLs, logs and screenshots.
- A persisted session is personal data, not a cache. Retention, access control, deletion path.
- Track how each fact was established. An assistant's own unverified guess in the history becomes a premise.
Before moving on
Move on when two users sharing a session id cannot see each other's state, and only source-verified facts are carried between turns.
