tracking(draft): Smart Memory beta → main

[win4r]

Smart Memory Beta Tracking (dev/smart-memory-v1.1.0 → main)

Status: Draft / Tracking PR — NOT ready to merge. This PR exists to coordinate community testing and follow-up PRs.

What’s included (high level)

• Smart Extraction (LLM-powered)
  • 6-category extraction (profile / preferences / entities / events / cases / patterns)
  • L0/L1/L2 layered metadata (falls back to regex capture when disabled or LLM init fails)
• Lifecycle Scoring
  • Retrieval score adjustment using decay + tier floors
  • (Beta) bounded tier/access metadata write-backs
• Access Reinforcement (from PR feat: add access reinforcement for memory time-decay #37, now in main as v1.0.26)
  • Frequently manually recalled memories decay more slowly (spaced-repetition style)
  • AccessTracker debounced metadata write-back

Install the beta (does NOT affect stable users)

npm i memory-lancedb-pro@beta

Current tags:

• latest: 1.0.26
• beta: 1.1.0-beta.2

Configuration quick-start

{
  "plugins.entries.memory-lancedb-pro": {
    "config": {
      "smartExtraction": true,
      "llm": {
        "apiKey": "${OPENAI_API_KEY}",
        "model": "gpt-4o-mini",
        "baseURL": "https://api.openai.com/v1"
      },
      "extractMinMessages": 4,
      "extractMaxChars": 8000,
      "retrieval": {
        "timeDecayHalfLifeDays": 60,
        "reinforcementFactor": 0.5,
        "maxHalfLifeMultiplier": 3
      }
    }
  }
}

Test checklist (community help wanted)

• Smart extraction triggers only when conversation length ≥ extractMinMessages
• Extraction category correctness (6-category system)
• Dedup/merge behavior (no memory spam)
• Retrieval quality vs stable (hybrid + rerank)
• Access reinforcement: repeated manual recall makes old memories stay relevant longer
• No unexpected writes / performance regressions (watch logs)
• Backward compatibility: existing DB works; disabling smartExtraction restores regex-only behavior

Known risks / areas to review

• Beta introduces additional metadata and bounded write-backs (tier + access stats) — please report any performance or correctness issues.
• Ensure config schema matches runtime behavior (no additionalProperties startup failures).

How to contribute

• Please open PRs targeting dev/smart-memory-v1.1.0 (not main).
• Include:
  • a short test plan
  • before/after behavior notes
  • any config schema changes updated in openclaw.plugin.json
