RD-Forget: reversible, query-dependent forgetting for agent memory

MaryamMiradi · x · 2026-09-11

A new paper on AI agent memory reframes the question: not "what should the agent remember" but "what should it remember yet not use right now". Persistent agents accumulate outdated facts—deleting them loses history, retrieving them corrupts current answers.

RD-Forget separates storage from use: it keeps full source history but builds a query-conditioned memory view per question. When Mira → Acme later becomes Mira → Beryl, Acme is marked superseded rather than deleted—current questions use Beryl, historical questions make Acme available again. Forgetting becomes reversible and query-dependent, and the system then selects only relevant memories to use.
