Purpose: This document defines the Memory Lawyer Protocol, a set of rules governing how memory is created, accessed, and disputed within the system. It ensures that all memory operations are fair, transparent, and accountable, acting as a judicial-like framework for data integrity. This protocol outlines the rules and procedures for managing, accessing, and disputing memory within Artemis City. It acts as the “judicial review” for memory-related concerns.

​
Principles

  • Attribution: All memory entries must be attributable to an agent or system event.
  • Integrity: Memories must be protected from unauthorized alteration.
  • Contextual Retention: Memories are retained based on their relevance and the Trust Decay Model.
  • Ephemeral vs. Retained: Clear distinction and rules for temporary vs. persistent memory.

​
Key functions

  1. Memory Access Control: Defines which agents can read, write, or delete specific memory segments.
  2. Dispute Resolution: Provides a human-readable log and a process for agents (or humans) to challenge the accuracy or validity of a memory entry.
  3. Retention Policies: Specifies rules for how long different types of memories are kept, linking to the Trust Decay Model.
  4. Auditing & Logging: Ensures comprehensive logging of all memory interactions for transparency and accountability.
  5. Memory Tokenization: Describes how memory tokens or compressed timelines are generated and used for efficient context recall.
