The Rule Held. The Boundary Moved Up. AI Memory Judgment, CLAIM-31: Verified Carryover Across Closes
The author details a new security mechanism for AI agent memory, dubbed "verified carryover," designed to prevent malicious actors from circumventing per-window limits by splitting transactions across multiple closes. This system builds upon previous work that identified vulnerabilities in memory authorization where individual steps appeared safe but the overall trajectory was malicious. The "verified carryover" approach ensures that the running total is trustworthy by verifying the integrity of state transitions and the closes that dictate when the count resets, thereby preventing a form of "smurfing" in AI workflows.
