User facts are internalized as surgical local edits to a hash-keyed Engram memory table with reasoning skill held in a shared adapter, claimed to match LoRA recall, improve indirect reasoning 5.6x on average, and compose across users with 33,000x smaller footprint than per-user adapters.

PERMA is a new benchmark using temporally ordered events, text variability, and linguistic alignment to evaluate LLM memory agents on persona consistency beyond simple retrieval.
Training a 9B LLM agent with reinforcement learning to actively navigate a structured multi-granularity memory pyramid yields competitive performance on memory-intensive benchmarks while preserving non-memory capabilities.
Human data reveals LLMs struggle at extracting attributes from real conversations, selecting relevant ones, and generating responses humans rate no better than generic ones, with reward models showing only modest human correlation.
LLM agent progress depends on externalizing cognitive functions into memory, skills, protocols, and harness engineering that coordinates them reliably.
