Andy Dixon 03631e5685 feat: add long-term memory systems with fused retrieval and memory explorer
Phase 5 (ADR-0003). pkg/concepts fixes the epistemic vocabulary
(observation, fact, memory, claim, hypothesis, belief, prediction,
assumption, inference, opinion), memory kinds and relation names.

internal/memory stores episodic, semantic, procedural and
autobiographical memories in one mind-scoped table with trust-derived
credibility, importance, salience and decaying activation. Retrieval
fuses full-text rank (any-term by default), optional pgvector similarity,
recency, activation, importance and credibility, and returns the
component scores so every recall can be explained. Decay lowers
activation and never deletes; retraction and supersession keep rows for
provenance. Relationships are constrained to one mind at insert time.
Embeddings live in a conditional pgvector table keyed by model so vector
spaces are never mixed; without an embedder the system degrades to text
and graph retrieval.

Attention gates encoding: the attend handler turns admitted observations
into episodic memories (operator changes become autobiographical ones)
with memory_created events; the retrieve process proposes recalled
memories as candidates and admitted recalls are reinforced with
memory_retrieved events carrying their scoring components.

Memory explorer UI (search with component breakdown, timeline, filters,
operator knowledge entry), memory detail with provenance, relationships,
citing events and an inaccurate-memory correction; API; noemactl memory
commands; decay and embed-missing background jobs.

[Unreleased]

Added

  • Phase 5 memory: episodic/semantic/procedural/autobiographical memory with epistemic status, fused retrieval with inspectable component scores, optional pgvector embeddings, decay without deletion, attention-gated encoding, retrieval process, memory explorer and CLI.
  • Phase 4 cognition core: deterministic attention scoring with inspectable breakdowns, global workspace and working memory with decay, per-mind cognitive runtime with bounded concurrent processes, loop detection, operator controls, live workspace page and CLI.
  • Phase 3 events: append-only cognitive event store with provenance links, filtered queries, durable cursors, live SSE streams with resume, forensic event explorer UI, thought stream page, operator observations and CLI.
  • Phase 2 minds: structured personalities with append-only version history, diff, restore, templates with preserved overrides, self-model, mind lifecycle (create, clone, disable, archive), API, UI editor and CLI.
  • Phase 1 foundation: configuration, structured logging, metrics, migrations, local authentication (Argon2id, sessions, CSRF, lockout, roles, API tokens), audit log, JSON API skeleton, server-rendered admin UI with light/dark theme, noemad and noemactl.
  • Repository foundation: plan, architecture, security model, threat model, ADRs, Makefile, container files.
