Memory Arena: FAQ

What evidence ships with the package?

The package includes v0.1.8-bundled-historical, a historical snapshot with 16 questions across 4 categories. Its summaries use mixed source commits and seed counts. The snapshot supports inspection and regression work; it does not publish a current benchmark ranking.

Can I use the bundled numbers to choose a memory system?

No. Use them as examples of a past run only. A decision needs a controlled run that records the candidate versions, corpus, generator, judge, seeds, costs, and unavailable systems. Read the decision guide for a comparison plan.

Why is the historical sample small?

The bundle has 16 questions across 4 categories. That sample is too small and too mixed to support a current winner claim or a general causal conclusion about an architecture. It remains in the package so users can inspect the historical evidence and exercise local report paths.

What does the cross-judge report prove?

Nothing. The legacy cross-judge report is invalid for claims because it compared incompatible score semantics. It remains quarantined only as invalid legacy evidence. New runs should keep equivalent raw scores, find every ungraded record, and compare judges under a declared protocol.

Why are vendor costs difficult to compare?

Some systems make internal model calls outside the harness accounting path. Treat a reported cost as incomplete unless the run records every provider call under a shared accounting method.

What is the difference between agent memory and RAG?

Both retrieve information. Agent memory is usually built from a user's changing conversation history, while RAG commonly searches a mostly static document corpus. The distinction matters when a product must handle updates, contradictions, source isolation, and deletion requests.

Is v0.2.0 available?

No. v0.2.0 is planned work for a controlled benchmark with a larger question set and explicit comparability rules. It has not shipped and it has no current ranking.
