AgentMemGate: Addressing Speculation Contamination in Conversational Assistant Memory

Key points

• Final-state memory benchmarks miss this error because they do not probe intermediate state and include few unresolved speculations.1
• We present AgentMemGate, a write-time gate for profile-store memory that classifies extracted statements as speculation, completed event, correction, or other.1
• We also contribute a dataset of multi-session conversations in which plans are confirmed, abandoned, or left unresolved.1
• Our analysis identifies field matching as the main remaining bottleneck: realistic speculations often match no profile field and never reach the gate.1

  Conversational AI assistants with long-term memory extract facts from user messages into a store consulted in later conversations.

  Final-state memory benchmarks miss this error because they do not probe intermediate state and include few unresolved speculations.
