agentic memory should be more than just periodic tool use to recall something from a memory store. working memory should keep track of concepts and tasks in flight. proactive memory should retrieve possibly relevant things as context evolves, even pre-warming/filling caches.

it feels like structured state space models and things like kalman filters have a lot of conceptual overlap with these needs, and i've built some experimental systems that do this (and work decently, with room for improvement), but i really need to do a deeper dive into the literature.
