docs update for profile buckets and inferred memory review (#1158)

### TL;DR

Adds documentation for the Memory Review endpoints and Profile Buckets feature.

### What changed?

**Memory Review (`memory-review.mdx`)**
- Added a new documentation page covering the two inferred memory review endpoints: `GET /v3/container-tags/{containerTag}/inferred` and `POST /v3/container-tags/{containerTag}/inferred/{memoryId}/review`.
- Documents the three review actions (`approve`, `decline`, `undo`) and how each affects search ranking and memory state (`isInference`, `isForgotten`, `reviewStatus`).
- Includes request/response examples in both `fetch` and cURL, a field reference table, error codes, and a collapsible React Query hooks example for building a review UI.
- Registered the new page in `docs.json` under the "Manage Content" group and linked to it from the Memory Operations next steps.

**Profile Buckets (`user-profiles.mdx`)**
- Added a "Profile Buckets" section explaining custom topical categories (`preferences`, `goals`, `work`, etc.) as a complement to `static`/`dynamic` profile sections.
- Documents the `include`, `buckets`, and `filters` query parameters on the profile endpoint.
- Covers the `GET /v4/profile/buckets` endpoint for listing configured bucket definitions, with request/response examples and a field reference.
- Explains the `[Recent]` / `[Summary]` label convention used in bucket and dynamic profile entries.
- Updated the `ProfileResponse` TypeScript interface to mark `static` and `dynamic` as optional and add the `buckets` field.

### How to test?

- Navigate to the docs site and confirm "Memory Review" appears in the sidebar under "Manage Content".
- Verify all code examples render correctly and tabs switch between `fetch` and cURL variants.
- Confirm the React Query accordion expands and displays the TypeScript snippet.
- Check that the Profile Buckets section renders inline within the User Profiles page, including the response JSON blocks and the tip/note callouts.

### Why make this change?

Inferred (derived) graph memories are down-weighted in search until reviewed, but there was no documentation explaining how to surface or act on them. Similarly, profile buckets were a shipped feature with no public-facing docs. These additions give developers the reference material needed to build review UIs and use topical bucket filtering in their integrations.

Supermemory's graph automatically **derives** new facts from patterns across your
existing memories (see [Graph Memory](/concepts/graph-memory)). These derived facts
are guesses — the engine wasn't told them directly — so they are flagged as
**inferred** (`isInference: true`) and **down-weighted in search** until confirmed.
These two endpoints let you build a review experience on top of that queue: list the
inferred memories awaiting review, then **approve**, **decline**, or **undo** a
decision on each one.
<Info>
These endpoints are scoped to a single [container tag](/concepts/container-tags)
(space), under `/v3/container-tags/{containerTag}`.
</Info>
## How review affects ranking
While a memory is unreviewed and inferred it is down-weighted in search, so the
engine's guesses rank below facts you stated explicitly. Reviewing it resolves that
either way:
| Action | Result | Effect on search |
|--------|--------|------------------|
| **Approve** | `isInference` cleared | Ranks like a stated fact — no longer down-weighted |
| **Decline** | `isForgotten` set | Removed from search entirely — a rejected guess is forgotten |
| **Undo** | back to unreviewed | Returns to the queue; inferred and down-weighted again |
A reviewed memory is stamped with `reviewStatus` in its metadata so it drops out of the
review queue (declined memories also leave search, since they're forgotten). **Undo**
clears that stamp — and un-forgets a declined memory — bringing it back.

## List Inferred Memories
Return the inferred memories for a container tag that are still awaiting review (the
review queue). Reviewed memories are excluded.
```
GET /v3/container-tags/{containerTag}/inferred
```

const res = await fetch(
"https://api.supermemory.ai/v3/container-tags/user_123/inferred",

### Response
```json
{
"memories": [
{
"id": "mem_abc123",
"memory": "Alex likely works on Stripe's core payments product",
"parentCount": 3,
"createdAt": "2025-01-15T10:30:00.000Z",
"updatedAt": "2025-01-15T10:30:00.000Z",
"metadata": { "source": "derive" }
}
],
"total": 1
}
```
| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `memories[].id` | string | Memory entry ID — pass to the review endpoint |
| `memories[].memory` | string | The inferred memory text |
| `memories[].parentCount` | number | How many source memories this was derived from. Higher = stronger signal |
| `memories[].createdAt` | string | ISO 8601 timestamp |
| `memories[].updatedAt` | string | ISO 8601 timestamp |
| `memories[].metadata` | object \| null | Arbitrary metadata stored on the memory |
| `total` | number | Count of unreviewed inferred memories returned |
<Note>
The queue returns up to **50** memories, ordered by `parentCount` descending (most
strongly supported first), then by `createdAt` descending. It excludes anything that
is forgotten, expired, or already reviewed. An unknown or empty container tag returns
`{ "memories": [], "total": 0 }`.
</Note>

## Review an Inferred Memory
Record a decision on a single inferred memory.
```
POST /v3/container-tags/{containerTag}/inferred/{memoryId}/review
```
<Tabs>
<Tab title="fetch">
```typescript
const res = await fetch(
"https://api.supermemory.ai/v3/container-tags/user_123/inferred/mem_abc123/review",
{
method: "POST",
headers: {
"Authorization": `Bearer ${API_KEY}`,
"Content-Type": "application/json"
},
body: JSON.stringify({ action: "approve" })
}
);
const result = await res.json();
// { id: "mem_abc123", isInference: false, isForgotten: false, reviewStatus: "approved" }

-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"action": "approve"}'
```
</Tab>
</Tabs>
### Path parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-----------|------|-------------|
| `containerTag` | string | The container tag / space the memory belongs to |
| `memoryId` | string | The memory entry ID from the list endpoint |
### Body parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `action` | string | yes | One of `approve`, `decline`, or `undo` |
<Warning>
The reject action is named **`decline`**. There is no `reject` value.
</Warning>
**Action semantics:**
- **`approve`** — Promote the memory: clears `isInference`, so it ranks like a stated
fact instead of a down-weighted guess. Stamps `reviewStatus: "approved"`.
- **`decline`** — Reject the suggestion: the memory is **forgotten**
(`isForgotten: true`) and stamped `reviewStatus: "declined"`, so it leaves both
search and the review queue.
- **`undo`** — Revert a prior `approve`/`decline` back to the unreviewed inferred
state: restores `isInference: true`, un-forgets the memory (`isForgotten: false`),
and clears the review stamp, so it returns to the queue.
### Response
```json
{
"id": "mem_abc123",
"isInference": false,
"isForgotten": false,
"reviewStatus": "approved"
}
```
| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `id` | string | The reviewed memory ID |
| `isInference` | boolean | `false` after approve; `true` after decline or undo |
| `isForgotten` | boolean | `true` after decline (the memory is forgotten); `false` otherwise |
| `reviewStatus` | `"approved"` \| `"declined"` \| `null` | The new status; `null` after an undo |
### Errors
| Status | When |
|--------|------|
| `401` | Missing or invalid authentication |
| `404` | The container tag or memory was not found in your organization |
| `409` | The memory isn't reviewable for this action — it's not an inferred memory, or there's no prior review to undo |
---
## Building a review experience
The endpoints are designed for an optimistic, one-at-a-time review UI (swipe to keep /
decline, with undo). A typical client fetches the queue once, then pops each card off
locally as the user decides — `undo` re-adds it.

return;
}
queryClient.setQueryData<InferredMemory[]>(key(containerTag), (prev) =>
prev?.filter((m) => m.id !== memoryId),
);
},
});
}
```
</Accordion>
<Note>
There is no separate "skip" action. A swipe-to-skip is purely client-side — don't send
a request and the memory simply stays in the queue for a later session.

## Profile Buckets
Buckets are **custom topical categories** for a profile — an axis that sits alongside
`static` and `dynamic`. Where static/dynamic split facts by how long-lived they are,
buckets group them by subject (e.g. `preferences`, `goals`, `work`). As content is
ingested, a classifier assigns each memory to the buckets it matches, so you can pull
just the slice of context a given surface needs.
Every org starts with a built-in `preferences` bucket. You can define your own at the
organization or space level in your console settings; space-level buckets are
**add-only** — a container tag inherits all org buckets and may add more, but cannot
disable them.
### Requesting buckets
Pass `include: ["buckets"]` to return bucket-organized memories, and optionally
`buckets` to limit the response to specific keys. `include` also lets you skip
sections you don't need — `["buckets"]` alone omits `static` and `dynamic`.

]
}
}
}
```
<Note>
**`[Recent]` and `[Summary]` labels.** To keep profiles dense, an entity's older
memories are periodically aggregated into a short synthesis. Entries prefixed
`[Summary]` are that aggregated context; entries prefixed `[Recent]` were ingested
since the last aggregation and aren't summarized yet. The `dynamic` section uses the
same `[Recent]` prefix (plus a `[YYYY-MM-DD]` date). Strip the prefixes if you only
want raw text, or keep them to signal recency to your model.

| `buckets[].key` | string | Stable slug, also stored on each memory. Lowercase alphanumeric with `-`/`_`, 164 chars |
| `buckets[].description` | string | What belongs in the bucket — guides the ingestion classifier |
<Tip>
Bucket descriptions steer classification. A precise description ("Explicit
first-person preferences only — exclude inferred traits") yields cleaner buckets than
a vague one. `static` and `dynamic` are reserved and can't be used as bucket keys.
