Agent memory needs source fingerprints

Taktile describes an LLM Wiki for agent memory: markdown entries on a repo branch, category-specific sub-wikis, maintained indexes, and query-time source validation for answers. Why it matters: Persistent memory can cut repeated RAG work, but shared sources drift silently. The missing primitive is not another vector store; it is a cheap way to know which facts still match their source.

Try this: For any agent memory layer, inspect the provenance field: source URL, captured timestamp, last validated timestamp, and the rule for when an entry must be recompiled.
