An artificial intelligence agent memory audit inventories memory records and examines why each was written, which source supports it, whether it was ever read, and whether its assumptions still match the current system. It separates temporary plans and completed fixes from durable knowledge that remains useful.
Audits should be non-destructive by default. Suspect entries can be flagged, quarantined, superseded, or queued for review while prior history remains recoverable, and deletion should require evidence that the target is safe to remove under an explicitly authorized policy.
