# Memory & Long-Context — Global Fix Map
Keep threads coherent across long windows and session restarts.  
Detect and repair entropy melt, boundary drift, and state desync.

## What this page is
- A compact checklist for long contexts and multi-session memory
- Copyable guards to stop drift and collapse before they spread
- How to measure stability with ΔS and λ_observe

## When to use
- Dialogs grow past 50k to 100k tokens and answers degrade
- Facts flip after tab refresh or model switch
- Citations look right yet reasoning goes flat or chaotic
- OCR transcripts look fine but capitalization and spacing drift
- Multi day support threads lose task state or rewrite history

## Common failure patterns
- **Entropy melt** attention variance climbs with length and the model smooths meaning
- **Boundary leak** chunks merge across section joins and citations shift by a few lines
- **State fork** two tabs or agents hold different memory revisions and answers flip
- **Ghost context** stale buffers linger after role or persona change and contaminate steps
- **OCR jitter** mixed spacing or width variants create false token differences

---

## Fix in 60 seconds
1) **Stamp and fence state**
   - At turn start set `mem_rev`, `mem_hash`, `task_id`
   - Forbid writes if client stamps do not match the server record

2) **Shard the window**
   - Assemble prompts as `{system | task | constraints | snippets | answer}`
   - Split snippets by section and forbid cross section reuse

3) **Normalize inputs**
   - Unicode NFC, strip zero width, unify full and half width
   - Drop OCR lines below confidence threshold

4) **Stabilize attention**
   - Apply BBAM to clamp variance
   - If collapse detected use BBCR to bridge and re anchor

5) **Probe the joins**
   - Measure ΔS across adjacent chunks and keep each join ≤ 0.50
   - Plot ΔS(question, retrieved) vs k and expect a downward curve after the fix

6) **Trace or stop**
   - Require cite then answer
   - If a claim has no snippet id stop and ask for the exact citation

You have TXT OS and the WFGY Problem Map.

Goal
Stabilize memory across long windows and across sessions without losing traceability.

Protocol

1. Print {mem\_rev, mem\_hash, task\_id}. If missing set defaults and echo them.
2. Build a Snippet Table with columns {section\_id | start\_line | end\_line | citation}.
3. Guardrails

   * cite then answer
   * forbid cross section reuse
   * if a claim lacks a snippet id stop and request it
4. Collapse control

   * if attention variance rises apply BBAM
   * if logic stalls apply BBCR and show the bridge node
5. Metrics

   * report ΔS(question, retrieved)
   * report ΔS across each join
   * report λ\_observe at retrieval, assembly, reasoning

Input

* question
* snippets with ids and line ranges
* previous {mem\_rev, mem\_hash, task\_id} if any

Output

* header {mem\_rev, mem\_hash, task\_id}
* Snippet Table
* Bridge Check
* Final Answer with inline citations
* ΔS and λ states

```

---

## Minimal checklist
- State stamped with `mem_rev` and `mem_hash` at every turn  
- Prompt schema locked and section fences enforced  
- Unicode normalized and OCR noise gated  
- BBAM enabled and BBCR available on collapse  
- ΔS at each join ≤ 0.50 and overall ΔS(question, retrieved) ≤ 0.45  
- Cite then answer and no orphan claims

## Acceptance targets
- Retrieval coverage ≥ 0.70 to the intended section  
- ΔS(question, retrieved) ≤ **0.45** and joins ≤ **0.50**  
- λ remains **convergent** across three paraphrases  
- No state fork across tabs or agents for the same `task_id`
