📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughChangesThe PR adds tenant-scoped durable memory with database storage, identity resolution, access control, admission policy, rendering, session context, and agent tools. It also centralizes model selection, changes sandbox retention and build checks, and updates documentation metadata. Durable memory
EVI runtime and sandbox updates
Documentation metadata
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This PR adds durable memory with expiration and changes search results to expose whether memories are current. Users may see expired memories treated inconsistently across memory surfaces, and required validation is not yet complete after dependency installation failed. Merge should wait for the expiry behavior to be aligned and the checks to pass or be explicitly accepted. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Inline comments:
In `@apps/evi/agent/instructions/memory.ts`:
- Around line 18-19: Update the try/catch formatting in the surrounding
error-handling block so catch appears on the same line as the closing try brace,
satisfying the brace-style lint rule without changing behavior.
In `@apps/evi/agent/lib/memory/identity.ts`:
- Around line 77-96: Make the maintainer seeding flow around the existing
identity lookup and people/identities inserts atomic, using a transaction or
equivalent conflict-safe canonical-identity handling. When an identity conflict
occurs, re-read the persisted identity and return its winning personId instead
of returning a newly created orphan ID; preserve the existing null behavior when
no person is created. Add a regression test that exercises concurrent first-turn
seeding and verifies both calls resolve to the same person.
In `@apps/evi/agent/lib/memory/policy.ts`:
- Around line 27-29: Update contentHash to use locale-independent toLowerCase()
instead of toLocaleLowerCase() when normalizing the deduplication key,
preserving the existing SHA-256 hashing flow.
In `@apps/evi/agent/lib/memory/store.test.ts`:
- Around line 3-5: Consolidate the duplicate schema imports in store.test.ts
into one import containing schema, identities, and memories, and reorder the
imports so the drizzle-orm import precedes the relative db/schema import,
satisfying import/no-duplicates and import/order.
In `@apps/evi/agent/lib/memory/store.ts`:
- Around line 79-84: Update the memory persistence flow around the replacement
upsert and the supersedes branch to use a single database transaction. Within
it, validate that the superseded memory is in scope, reject when
input.supersedes matches the upserted row ID, then persist the replacement and
invalidate the prior memory atomically, ensuring failed writes cannot leave both
memories current.
- Around line 102-105: Update the search query in search() to remove the live()
predicate so corrected and invalidated memories remain searchable, while
preserving the target and text/title filters. Keep live() in list() and
prompt-context rendering where only current memories should be included.
In `@apps/evi/agent/tools/memory.ts`:
- Around line 25-129: Add a changeset for the new user-facing memory tools
exposed by the default defineDynamic export, covering memory__remember,
memory__search, and memory__forget with the appropriate package and release
impact.
Apply the same fix in `@apps/evi/agent/sandbox.ts` around lines 22 - 27:
User-facing sandbox retention and template validation changes require release
metadata.
Apply the same fix in `@apps/evi/package.json` at line 12: Affected package
release metadata must include the feature.

Add the required changeset for the user-facing changes in this PR.
The changeset should cover the durable memory tools and the sandbox/runtime behavior changes, including the retention change from 48 hours to 14 days and template validation behavior. Ensure the affected package is included, or verify that existing release metadata explicitly covers these changes.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Assert the expiry predicate completely.
This test only checks that the SQL contains "valid_to". It does not assert > now() and does not execute forget through the store. A regression that keeps expired rows live can pass. Assert the complete predicate or test the store operation with past and future validTo values.

Document the new expiration field.
validTo changes the exported MemoryRecord contract. Add JSDoc that defines null as no expiry and documents the exclusive validTo > now() boundary used by the store and tools.
As per coding guidelines, all public TypeScript APIs require JSDoc.
