Store agent memory as structured keys, not prose, to survive compression
bigaiguy · x · 2026-09-14
Never store agent memory as paragraphs — convert everything into keys: decision:, constraint:, openquestion:. Structured memory survives context compression, while prose gets mangled the moment it's summarized.
The quoted context adds the "State Block" trick: before every complex step, the agent writes three lines — what I know, what I still need, what I'm about to do — re-grounding itself each turn instead of trusting a fading context window.
