Smart Decay

Automatically manage memory freshness with importance scoring and aging.

Pinning

Pin critical memories so they never decay:

uteke pin <id>
uteke unpin <id>

Importance Scoring

uteke uses composite importance scoring based on access patterns, metadata, and pinning:

# Recalculate importance scores
uteke importance

Memory Aging

Track memory freshness with hot/warm/cold tiers:

# Show hot/warm/cold breakdown
uteke aging status

# Preview memories older than 90 days
uteke aging preview --older-than-days 90

# Delete stale memories older than 180 days
uteke aging cleanup --older-than-days 180 --yes

How It Works

Tier	Description
Hot	Accessed within hot_days (default 7), gets a hot_boost score bonus
Warm	Accessed within warm_days (default 30)
Cold	Older than the warm window, or never accessed after creation

Never-accessed memories are classified as Cold. Tier thresholds and boost are configurable via the [tier] config section.

Pinned memories bypass aging entirely — they stay in the store regardless of access patterns.
