Child1 Memory v2 success – MAJOR Breakthrough
Angie’s notes: I almost rolled back the memory system with major bugs yesterday, but tonight we had a breakthrough with linking all memory systems together! The key was separating the variables so architectural clarity so I could debug each separately (tedious, I know). ——— Child1 Terminal Output: You: Ying said you just had ‘symbolic agency’, […]
