 "title": "Trace each recalled memory back to the turn it came from",
 "page_title": "How to trace each recalled memory back to the turn it came from with Soda Mem",
 "summary": "Check where a stored fact came from before trusting an agent's answer about a user.",
 "who": "A developer or reviewer who must explain why an agent believes something about a user.",
 "problem": "A similarity score alone does not show which conversation produced a remembered claim.",
 "outcome": "Each line of recalled context links to a source span and the exact raw turn, so the claim can be checked.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `pip install \"sodamem[chroma,llm]\"` to install Soda Mem.",
  "Call mem.build_context for the user and question you want to audit, with a token_budget.",
  "Read block.citations to get each evidence item and its source.",
  "Use the MCP tool entity_timeline to see one entity's history in order, with each item still pointing at its source."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the SodaMem repo at <repo path>, run build_context for user <user_id> with the question <question>. Expected output: a list of citations, each tied to a session and turn. Verify that every line in the context has a citation.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Citations trace to stored turns only, so the audit is only as complete as what was ingested.",
 "category": "Software and DevOps",
 "tags": [

 ],
 "lang": "python",
 "requirements": [
  "Python environment with pip available",
  "An LLM provider API key set as SODAMEM_LLM_API_KEY, needed only for ingest",
  "Docker or a running daemon is not required for the Python path, but coding tools need `sodamem daemon ensure` first"
