Write the problem hypothesis
For [user], the agent loses or retrieves [information] incorrectly across [scope], causing [wrong action or repeated work].
You can name one user, one situation and one measurable consequence without proposing a feature.feat(storage): implement versioned checksum-backed offline and online migration

SUPPORTED ISSUE
This Issue has some independent public support. Treat it as a focused validation lead, not proof of a market.
Project strength and demand confidence are measured separately.SOURCE EVIDENCE

Reporter context: Parent: #2187 Depends on: scalable backend contract Related: #955 Problem aiwg storage migrate enumerates once, copies serially, and marks a pathname complete after destination.write(). Its receipt has no source version/digest or destination committed version. A changed path is skipped on rerun; deletes are not…Excerpted from the public Issue. Read the complete thread before interpreting it.
Recruit: Recruit contributors who can replay the problem in a representative repository and development environment.
Guardrail: Use a fixed test case and compare completion, regressions and recovery against the unchanged baseline.
Interview five developers or engineering leads
- Which information must persist?
- For how long and within what scope?
- Show the last wrong or missing recall.
- What data must never cross boundaries?
- How do you correct memory today?
Run the smallest experiment
Test one constrained memory scope with a small real dataset and a written expected-recall benchmark.
The system retrieves the right evidence across repeated sessions without leaking or inventing context.Use a fixed test case and compare completion, regressions and recovery against the unchanged baseline.Make a build decision
- Build: repeated pain and active commitment
- Narrow: pain is real but the audience or job differs
- Stop: weak frequency or no behavioral proof
Why this brief exists
Information has value only when it changes action. This page turns one public signal into a bounded validation exercise. It is a research aid, not proof of demand, investment advice or a product recommendation.
