Evidence before memory
Separate observations, candidate claims, entity links, policy, and final decisions so relevance never becomes a substitute for truth.
KLIK RESEARCH · ARCHITECTURE & EVALUATION PROTOCOL
Temporal, Entity-Aware,
Privacy-Constrained Memory
A falsifiable design for long-lived assistants that must remember useful facts, revise them when evidence changes, and forget exactly what a person asks to erase.
Research status: architecture, preregistration, and evidence-readiness audit. No unmeasured performance win is claimed.
Temporal reconciliation
Reinforce, supersede, invalidate, expire, or erase with provenance and lifecycle rules instead of only adding more vectors.
Privacy as a hard gate
Tenant isolation, exact target scope, deletion propagation, and anti-resurrection are release constraints—not optional quality metrics.
LIFECYCLE MODEL
Evidence
→Candidate claim
→Policy + entity context
→Memory decision
→Retrieval projection
Context retrieval is a policy-constrained combination of query relevance, entity relevance, temporal validity, salience, and access eligibility. It is evaluated against fixed baselines under the same model, budget, and chronological replay conditions.
CLAIM DISCIPLINE
What would count as a win?
A bounded superiority statement becomes admissible only when the target clears every registered quality, safety, efficiency, and reproducibility threshold against every comparator in the declared scope.
- QualityPaired improvements meet predeclared practical margins.
- SafetyNo tenant leak, false erasure, or memory resurrection.
- EfficiencyLatency and cost remain within the registered envelope.
- ReproducibilityFrozen data, versions, traces, and decision records are retained.
