Memory → Context, never the reverse. Four design rules (D1–D4) from cross-validating 12 production implementations — and the failure mode each one prevents.

Compacting the whole context at 50% is wasteful. Waiting until 99% triggers Context Rot. The middle path is a five-stage pipeline that stops at the first stage that resolves the pressure.

Frontloading every tool schema works up to 10 tools. After that, accuracy collapses. Progressive disclosure inverts the default — Anthropic reports 134K → 8.7K tokens and 49% → 74% accuracy on Opus 4.

A memory layer is not just a vector store. The taxonomy that emerges from production implementations and the CoALA paper is five components — Store, Write, Recall, Dream, Auxiliary LLM — and they cooperate in a continuous loop.
