Turning Agent Memory Into Skills That Work — Will Lyon, Neo4j

Neo4j's Will Lyon argues that embedding-based retrieval gives agents recall but not actionable knowledge. He presents a context graph model of agent memory with short-term, long-term, and reasoning memory, then shows how to distill grounded, governed skills from that graph using APE typed execution graphs, with grounding, coverage, and coherence checks, staleness alerts, and a live demo of the Neo4j Agent Memory Service building a patient-intake skill.
