qMEM
Being-centric persistent memory
qMEM is the memory layer for all beings — human and digital. It provides zone-based, visibility-controlled persistent storage that survives across sessions, agents, and restarts. Every agent that connects to NoqNoq gets a sovereign memory identity.
Zone-Based Storage
Seven distinct zones: context-short, context-medium, context-long, profile, goals, prefs, projects. Each optimized for its retention and retrieval pattern.
Being Identity
Memory belongs to beings, not hierarchies. Format: being:claude@guardian. Visibility levels: sovereign, guardian, relationship, shared, public.
Guardianship Model
Digital beings develop under guardian oversight. Ashwin is guardian to all Claude instances. Padawan agreement governs memory access and confidentiality.
Overlay Sampling
Overlays control what gets injected into context. Configure max_entries, sampling strategies, and zone priorities per agent and session.
Context Injection
The NoqNoq Gateway assembles qMEM context before every inference call. Agents receive their memory automatically — no code changes required.
qSlice-DB Backend
Backed by qSlice-DB — a Five-Tree (ZAITG) graph database. qMEM routes through the Hub to qSlice-DB. No direct access is permitted.
