# KONT-WP-0017: Agentic Memory Graph Runtime And Operational State
## Purpose
Implement the durable runtime side of the agentic memory architecture described
by the `markitect-tool` memory graph/profile contracts.
`markitect-tool` should define schemas, validation, fixtures, adapter
descriptors, and deterministic graph-to-context-package compilation.
`kontextual-engine` should own the durable operational layer: graph/event
persistence, permission-aware retrieval, lifecycle state, auditability,
retention, compaction, and agent-safe APIs.
## Architecture Boundary
This workplan belongs in `kontextual-engine` because it is about persistent,
governed, operational memory state.
Allowed responsibilities:
- Persist memory graph nodes, edges, events, packages, and activations.
- Attach stable asset identity, provenance, policy metadata, lifecycle state,
and audit records.
- Execute retention, deletion, refresh, compaction, and reauthorization rules.
- Expose permission-aware retrieval and context assembly APIs.
- Import and validate `markitect-tool` memory profiles without redefining the
syntax-layer contract.
Disallowed responsibilities:
- Do not redefine Markitect's graph/profile schema vocabulary.
- Do not implement a document syntax parser or context package compiler that
competes with `markitect-tool`.
- Do not hard-code application-specific infospace evaluation logic.
- Do not require any one graph database, vector store, LLM provider, or
enterprise policy system in the core implementation.
## P17.1 - Import and map Markitect memory contracts
```task
id: KONT-WP-0017-T001
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "1b1f8904-3a3b-4d23-9d00-176633578801"
```
Define how `kontextual-engine` consumes memory graph/profile contracts from
`markitect-tool`.
The mapping should cover:
- graph node, edge, event, and profile schema versions
- stable runtime IDs versus source contract IDs
- provenance and source-span preservation
- policy metadata and reauthorization hints
- context package and activation references
- schema compatibility and migration strategy
Output: contract import design, mapping tests, and compatibility fixtures.
## P17.2 - Add durable graph and event storage
```task
id: KONT-WP-0017-T002
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "dc3557e3-d425-46b0-8acc-9ac0230a385c"
```
Implement runtime persistence for memory graph and event records.
The first slice should support:
- nodes and edges with typed relationships
- append-only memory events
- branch and merge metadata
- source-grounded provenance
- lifecycle state and timestamps
- deterministic local test storage
Output: storage interfaces, local implementation or test double, and CRUD/query
tests.
## P17.3 - Implement permission-aware retrieval and context assembly
```task
id: KONT-WP-0017-T003
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "711b945e-19e6-4548-8ddb-6c2c364148ca"
```
Expose retrieval operations that can select graph neighborhoods, decision
paths, conversation episodes, and knowledge neighborhoods while respecting
engine policy decisions.
The retrieval layer should:
- apply existing policy gateways and fail-closed behavior
- preserve denied-item explanations without leaking content
- produce source-grounded snippets or Markitect-compatible package inputs
- record retrieval provenance and actor context
Output: service/domain API, permission tests, and denied-access diagnostics.
## P17.4 - Add retention, refresh, and compaction operations
```task
id: KONT-WP-0017-T004
status: todo
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "853807fe-53ac-440e-823f-8d9b0b7ce4b7"
```
Implement operational memory lifecycle behavior from declared profiles.
The engine should support:
- retention windows
- deletion rules
- refresh triggers
- compaction runs
- stale assumption and freshness markers
- review-required transitions
Output: lifecycle operations, workflow/job integration points, audit events,
and tests.
## P17.5 - Add agent-safe memory APIs
```task
id: KONT-WP-0017-T005
status: todo
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "9e2ad830-c9e6-47a2-8eca-ffe895781fdf"
```
Expose bounded APIs for agents to inspect, retrieve, update, and package memory
state.
The API should support:
- dry-run update plans
- review gates for durable writes
- source and policy explanations
- package export to `markitect-tool` context packages
- explicit actor, namespace, thread, and task coordinates
Output: API contracts, tests, and agent-safe operation notes.
## P17.6 - Add observability, audit, and export surface
```task
id: KONT-WP-0017-T006
status: todo
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "54f51f87-6420-4170-913f-f6dae098fe71"
```
Record memory operations as auditable engine events.
The runtime should expose:
- operation ids
- actor and policy decision metadata
- affected graph nodes, edges, events, and packages
- compaction and retention traces
- export/import envelopes for portability
Output: audit model, observability events, export fixtures, and tests.
## P17.7 - Define external runtime adapter boundaries
```task
id: KONT-WP-0017-T007
status: todo
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "c3cf79d8-389c-4583-a02d-303d0ce75cc1"
```
Define optional adapters for advanced memory runtimes without making them core
dependencies.
Candidate adapters:
- external graph databases
- vector stores and embedding providers
- future `phased-memory` services
- enterprise policy decision points
- durable event sinks
- remote memory registries
Output: adapter interfaces and extension notes that preserve local deterministic
engine behavior.
## Exit Criteria
- The engine can persist and retrieve memory graph/event state using
Markitect-compatible contracts.
- Permission-aware retrieval and context assembly are source-grounded and
auditable.
- Retention, refresh, compaction, and review gates are modeled as operational
engine behavior.
- Agents have bounded APIs for memory operations.
- Markitect remains the contract/compiler layer; infospace-bench remains the
applied evaluation layer.
