MELD: A Protocol for Merging Knowledge Across Distributed Agentic Memories

arXiv:2608. 16357v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous agents share a transport and can call each other's tools, but they cannot share what they know: no protocol lets two agents' memories reconcile a fact phrased two ways, link related facts held apart, or reconcile contradictory knowledge without silently discarding either claim.

When AI Agents Commit: Cognitive Serializability Across Data, Evidence, Policy, and Authority

The paper introduces the concept of Cognitive Serializability for autonomous AI agents, ensuring that mutations derived from dynamic inputs—such as database reads, evidence, policy, beliefs, and delegated authority—are committed in a serial, logically consistent order. It presents a framework called Trusted Cognitive Transaction (TCT) that combines immutable executable definitions, sealed envelopes, guard-first commits, and receipt-driven reconciliation to enforce serializability and prevent anomalies. Experimental results show that the prototype implementation incurs minimal overhead while eliminating injected anomalies.

Verify Claims, Not Scores: Evidence-Based Verification of Modular Agents

The paper proposes a claim‑specific verification audit for modular agents that replaces aggregate task scores with evidence‑based evaluations. Each agent conclusion is recorded with supporting evidence and classified as supported, unsupported, unresolved, or not evaluated, along with the boundary of validity. The audit employs three tools—oracle policies, perfect component replacements, and verifier‑score tests—to trace value changes, locate lost value, and assess verifier effectiveness, demonstrated on a portfolio‑allocation agent in a synthetic market.
