Resolving Conflicting Stored Memories

An agent that keeps notes across runs accumulates facts from different times and sources, and some of them will contradict each other. Choosing silently, usually by overwriting with the newest write, quietly loses the older entry even when it was the correct one. This skill covers storing provenance and time with each memory, preferring the newest verified fact while keeping the superseded one, and surfacing a conflict instead of guessing.
