The encoding agent was LLM-compressing handoff memories like any other type, reducing structured session notes (completed tasks, pending items, known issues, file paths, commands) to a one-line summary. This caused cross-session handoffs to lose critical detail. Handoff memories now skip LLM compression entirely and preserve the raw content verbatim. A short summary is extracted from the first line, and "handoff"/"session" concepts are added for retrieval. Salience is set to 0.95 to ensure handoffs surface in recall_project.
