What Should an Agent Remember? Disentangling Retention from Retrieval in Bounded

arXiv:2603.23231v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Empowering large language models with long-term memory is crucial for building agents that adapt to users' evolving needs. However,

arXiv:2609.29144v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Persistent memory lets language-model agents improve prompts and skills without updating model weights. We show that matching

arXiv:2609.10263v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Persistent language agents need stored experience to remain available across time, while each answer requires evidence suited to a

arXiv:2604.27707v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Current agentic memory systems (vector stores, retrieval-augmented generation, scratchpads, and context-window management) do not

arXiv:2605.07313v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Memory-agent evaluations report fixed-snapshot accuracy or retrieval quality, but these scores do not show whether evidence remains

arXiv:2604.01007v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI agents increasingly operate over extended time horizons, yet their ability to retain, organize, and recall multimodal

arXiv:2604.15877v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As LLM agents scale to long-horizon, multi-session deployments, efficiently managing accumulated experience becomes a critical

arXiv:2610.00025v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent harnesses increasingly want to run small language models (SLMs) on the microtasks around a frontier large language model
