Beyond the Hype: Building a Practical AI Memory System with Vector Databases

<p>Two AI agents need to collaborate. One researches, the other writes. How do they share what they know?</p> <p>This is not a theoretical question. Multi-agent systems are the

<p>Every agent pipeline I've touched in the last eighteen months reinvents memory, and most of them do it badly.</p> <p>Planner decisions never reach the executor. Giant prompts
