Metis ยท Memory Curator โ€” Consolidate Session Memory

consolidate_session_memory

Reviews recent agent runs, identifies high-value work, deduplicates existing memory, and writes structured entries to the database and markdown files.

Instructions

Scan recent agent runs and write structured memory entries for high-value work.

Reads the n most recent agent_runs, identifies runs with output files and
substantive task summaries, deduplicates against existing memory_entries,
and writes new entries to the DB + markdown files.

Args:
    n_runs: Number of recent agent runs to review (default 20).
    min_quality: 'high' = only runs with output files; 'all' = include run-only entries.

Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

With no annotations, the description discloses key behaviors: reading recent runs, filtering based on output files and summaries, deduplication against existing entries, and writing to DB and markdown files. It lacks details on side effects or permissions but provides sufficient transparency for safe invocation.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is concise and front-loaded with the main action. The Args section is integrated but could be more structured (e.g., bullet points). Overall efficient with no wasted sentences.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a tool with two parameters, high coverage in description, and an output schema (not shown), the description sufficiently explains the process, inputs, and outputs. No major gaps apparent for agent usage.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Despite 0% schema description coverage, the description's Args section explains both parameters (n_runs default 20, min_quality with options 'high' and 'all'). This adds meaningful context beyond the schema, clarifying behavior and defaults.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Description clearly states the tool scans recent agent runs, identifies high-value work, deduplicates, and writes memory entries. It specifies verbs 'scan' and 'write' with resources, and contrasts with similar siblings like 'consolidate_old_memories' and 'add_memory_entry' through its explicit workflow.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description explains the tool reads recent runs and the meaning of parameters (n_runs, min_quality), implying use for consolidating session memory. However, it does not explicitly state when to use this vs alternatives like consolidate_old_memories or add_memory_entry, nor provides when-not-to-use guidance.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
