Remember meaning, not noise
Memory that supports the relationship.
More memory is not automatically better. Useful companion memory is selective, attributable and correctable. It should make a future conversation feel connected without turning every passing sentence into permanent fact.
Three layers of continuity
Recent conversation context keeps the current exchange coherent. Relationship memory holds durable preferences, important people, boundaries and shared history. Relationship state summarizes how trust, familiarity and current story threads are changing.
Those layers are tied to the authenticated user and the selected character. A popular character can serve thousands of people while each relationship remains independent.
Correction is part of memory
People change their minds, and models can misunderstand. Palumi exposes memories in character settings so a user can revise or forget an item instead of being trapped by a bad inference.
The best sign of memory is restraint
A character should not recite a dossier to prove it remembers. Good recall appears when it helps: using the right name, respecting a boundary, asking how an important event went or continuing the idea you left unfinished.
