Reproduce observational-memory bugs (reflection, recall, observer, freshness, eviction) by dumping the live `~/.duet/memory.db` into a fixture and driving an eval against it. Use whenever the agent's memory misbehaves — wrong observations, bad reflections, missing recall, runaway tokens — or whenever the user asks to debug, repro, audit, or tune memory.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Debug Memory

The standard operating procedure when memory misbehaves is: dump the live store, narrow to the smallest reproducing slice, seed it into a `MemorySession` fixture, write the failing eval, then iterate on the prompt or code until it goes green. Never tune against the user's running database — every dump is a fixture.

## 1. Dump the live store

`scripts/dump-memory.ts` reads any PGlite memory store and writes JSON. Default source is `~/.duet/memory.db`, default destination is stdout.

```bash
# Everything
bun run scripts/dump-memory.ts --pretty --stats --out /tmp/memory.json

# Only raw observations from the last 7 days
bun run scripts/dump-memory.ts --kind observation --since 7d --pretty \
  --out evals/fixtures/global-reflect/recent-pool.json --stats

# Only reflection rows (to inspect what global prune produced)
bun run scripts/dump-memory.ts --kind reflection --pretty --stats

# A specific session's tail
bun run scripts/dump-memory.ts --session <session_id> --limit 50 --pretty

# High-priority cross-session reflections older than 30 days
bun run scripts/dump-memory.ts --kind reflection --priority high --until 30d --pretty
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add dzhng/duet-agent/debug-memory@sha256:5ecc3f7faba8f82e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260525.773900d, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
