Distill

What it does

Distill acts as a deterministic intelligence layer that manages what an AI agent remembers across sessions. It eliminates redundant information via semantic deduplication, compresses aging context, and detects contradictory information to ensure the AI operates on a high-signal, trustable memory store.

Tools

• store_memory: Save a piece of information with write-time deduplication and sensitivity tagging.
• recall_memory: Retrieve memories based on relevance and recency with task-relevance boosting.
• forget_memory: Remove outdated or deprecated memories.
• memory_expire: Soft-delete a memory without full removal.
• memory_supersede: Replace an old memory with a newer, updated version.
• memory_stats: Get statistics on the current memory store.
• create_session: Manage token-budgeted context windows for long-running tasks.
• push_session: Incrementally add content to a session with automatic budget enforcement.
