arXiv:2609. 04875v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-running LLM agents are stateful: beyond the transcript they accrete compressed summaries, plaintext memory, pending tool plans, and, under every serving API, a KV cache.

arXiv:2608. 04830v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Memory is essential as language agents move from isolated tasks to long-horizon, stateful workflows, yet existing evaluations often reduce it to retrieval or question answering.

The paper introduces kernel‑managed shared memory, a system‑level abstraction that lets specialized agents write structured, tagged memories while the agent‑system kernel controls retrieval, privacy, and prompt injection. Implemented on AIOS, this design outperforms unmanaged external memory, standard retrieval‑augmented injection, and full context concatenation across GPT‑4o, Llama‑3.1:8B, and Qwen‑2.5:7B, improving personalization scores by 2.4‑4.0 points on a 5‑point scale and reducing latency and token usage by 15‑61%. The results show that centralizing memory management in the kernel delivers most personalization benefits at a fraction of the cost.

arXiv:2606. 15903v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Where an LLM sits in an agent memory pipeline -- between the recall plane that retrieves stored facts (extensively benchmarked) and the control plane that mutates them via supersede, release, purge (largely untested) -- shapes which forgetting failure modes the system recovers.
