agents.memory-distill ​
Distill a finished agent session into memory entries, gated on the config's memory_write_enabled flag
Turn a finished session into memory entries.
The writer, per ADR-2026-08-21-memory-write-policy. Started fire-and-forget from both finalize workflows -- COMPLETED and FAILED -- and never awaited: distillation is an LLM round-trip, and finalize is what marks a session done. Blocking it would make every session slower and make memory an availability risk for the thing it exists to help.
Everything it can fail on is caught. A session that produced no memory is a session that produced no memory; it is not a failed session.
