//! v2.12.0 — Memory-Augmented MDN (paper `paper_memory_augmented_mdn.md`).
//!
//! "Memory is not storage. It is a continuous deformation of the epistemic
//! landscape." This module implements memory as a transformation of the corpus
//! graph itself — **no embeddings, no external vector store**. A
//! memory-augmented corpus is `C* = (D, R, τ, ω, σ, H, μ)`: the MDN corpus plus a
//! history `H` of past interactions and an update operator `μ : (C, H) → C'`.
//!
//! `μ` is deliberately restricted to the **geometry** (`ω`, `σ`) — never the
//! **topology** (`D`, `R`, `τ`) (paper Def 3) — which buys convergence,
//! reversibility, and functoriality. Three orthogonal memory types decompose it:
//!
//! - **Episodic** (Def 5): stored trajectories `Π`; recall by Jaccard node-set
//! similarity — no embeddings.
//! - **Semantic** (Def 6): edge-weight learning `ω'(r) = clamp(ω(r) + Δ(r|H),
//! ε, 1)` with `Δ(r|H) = η · Σ_{o: r∈Edges(πₒ)} (sₒ − s̄) · γ^(now−tₒ)`. Edges
//! on above-average-outcome paths are reinforced; below-average ones weakened.
//! - **Procedural** (Def 7): a navigation `Bias(D')` — Kivi's
//! `ProceduralBiasVector` — accumulated from D's frequency in successful paths.
//!
//! Faithful to the paper's guarantees (verified by the property tests below):
//! **locality** (Def 4 — only traversed edges change), **empty history is
//! identity** (Prop 2 — `μ(C, ∅) = C`), **convergence** under bounded updates
//! (Theorem 2 — `Σ|Δ_t| ≤ η/(1−γ) < ∞` ⇒ weights are Cauchy in `[ε, 1]`), and
//! **geometry-not-topology** (the document/edge sets are preserved).
