rig-memory-policy 0.2.1

Backend-agnostic memory-policy primitives (frame metadata, content-hash dedup) shared by Rig memory-store adapters.
Documentation
//! Typed metadata envelope for entries written by memory-lifecycle hooks.
//!
//! Backends stamp a [`FrameMetadata`] envelope into their per-entry metadata
//! map (e.g. `memvid_core::SearchHitMetadata::extra_metadata`, or any
//! equivalent key-value bag on another backend) so downstream tools — evals,
//! memory inspectors, RAG pipelines — can decode the origin of each retrieved
//! entry uniformly regardless of the storage engine.

/// The type of entry produced by a memory lifecycle hook.

/// Backends pattern-match on this enum across crate boundaries (e.g. to
/// classify retrieved entries by origin), so the enum is **not**
/// `#[non_exhaustive]`. Any future variant addition is therefore a breaking
/// change and must bump the major version of this crate.
