Agent Platform: rewrite Context Broker around the real concept
Replace feature-level description with the concept from c1-the-context-
broker.md. Reframe as context engineering: the infinite conversation
as thinking substrate (not a log), context windows as purpose-built
curated views, build types as named assembly strategies, two memory
layers (episodic + semantic) drawable in any proportion, and proactive
background assembly so context is ready before the agent reaches for it.
Bullet list updated to include configurable build types, per-participant
windows, and proactive assembly as first-class capabilities.

<p>It stores every message, embeds it for semantic search, extracts structured knowledge into a graph, and assembles purpose-built context windows on demand — curated views tailored to the specific participant, constructed according to a configured strategy, strictly bound by token budgets.</p>

<p>LLM agents reason inside finite context windows. Real conversations accumulate indefinitely. Context Broker is the service that bridges that gap — the tool that performs <b>context engineering</b>, the discipline of assembling the right informational view from an unbounded conversation substrate for a specific agent, with a specific purpose, within a specific token budget.</p>
89
+
<p>Every conversation — every message, every turn, every participant — is stored completely and indefinitely. This is the <em>infinite conversation</em>: not a log or an audit trail, but the medium through which agents think and accumulate knowledge over time.</p>
90
+
<p>A context window is not the conversation truncated to fit. It is a <b>purpose-built view</b> constructed by a named <em>build type</em> — progressive compression, sliding window, knowledge-dominant, document injection, or any domain-specific hybrid. Two agents in the same conversation can receive entirely different assembled views, because what each agent needs from that history is different. The build type encodes an agent's purpose at the memory layer.</p>
91
+
<p>Build types draw on two distinct memory layers in any proportion. <b>Episodic memory</b> is the conversation record itself, progressively compressed as it ages. <b>Semantic memory</b> is a knowledge graph extracted from conversations in the background — entities, relationships, preferences, and decisions — answering <em>what do I know about X</em> rather than <em>what was said about X</em>. An engineering agent might be weighted toward semantic-dominant context; a persona agent maintaining continuity with a user, toward episodic.</p>
92
+
<p>Assembly is <b>proactive</b>. Context is rebuilt for each participant in the background after every message, during idle time. When an agent reaches for its context, the assembled view is already waiting — no summarization latency at reasoning time. The complexity of compression, graph retrieval, and strategy application is hidden from the agent entirely.</p>
