Governance
Memory governance
Rules for what agent memory can store, trust, retrieve, update, and forget.
Memory governance covers source validation, confidence thresholds, contradiction checks, namespace access, temporal decay, and review paths for agent memory.
Why it matters
Agent memory can improve performance, but it can also preserve stale, poisoned, or unauthorized information.
How HARNEXA uses it
HARNEXA agent contracts define memory namespaces and validation requirements for durable knowledge updates.
FAQ
Questions this definition answers.
Why does memory need governance?
Because bad memory can silently influence future agent decisions.
What is temporal decay?
It is a retrieval strategy that lowers the weight of older signals unless they remain validated.
