prepareRetentionTranscript only skipped messages whose stripped content
trimmed to the empty string, so single-character assistant turns like
".", "...", or pure whitespace survived as
`[role: assistant]\n.\n[assistant:end]` blocks. Repeated across a
session (each tool-call-only or thinking-only turn produces one) these
polluted the Hindsight bank, wasted retain tokens, and degraded recall
relevance. extractMessages and flattenMessagesForRecall had the same
gap, only checking length/trim truthiness.
Add hasSubstantiveContent in hindsight/content.ts (a single
\p{L}/\p{N} test) and apply it from all three call sites so retain,
recall, and pre-compaction inputs require at least one letter or digit
per message. Single-char real replies ("y", "4", "ok") still pass.
Fixes #1806

Memory backends
The agent supports three mutually-exclusive memory backends, selected via the memory.backend setting (Settings → Memory tab, or ~/.omp/config.yml):
off(default) — no memory subsystem runs.local— existing rollout-summarisation pipeline; writesmemory_summary.mdand consolidated artifacts under the agent dir.hindsight— talks to a Hindsight server (Cloud or self-hosted Docker), retains transcripts every Nth user turn, recalls memories on the first turn of a session, and exposesretain,recall, andreflect.
Hindsight quickstart
- Run a Hindsight server (Cloud or
docker run -p 8888:8888 ghcr.io/vectorize-io/hindsight:latest). - Set
memory.backend = "hindsight"andhindsight.apiUrl = "http://localhost:8888"(or your Cloud URL). - Optional environment overrides (env wins over settings):
HINDSIGHT_API_URL,HINDSIGHT_API_TOKEN— connectionHINDSIGHT_BANK_ID,HINDSIGHT_DYNAMIC_BANK_ID,HINDSIGHT_AGENT_NAME— bank addressingHINDSIGHT_AUTO_RECALL,HINDSIGHT_AUTO_RETAIN,HINDSIGHT_RETAIN_MODE— lifecycleHINDSIGHT_RECALL_BUDGET,HINDSIGHT_RECALL_MAX_TOKENS— recall sizingHINDSIGHT_BANK_MISSION,HINDSIGHT_DEBUG
Switching backends mid-session is honoured on the next system-prompt rebuild and the next /memory slash command. Existing users with memories.enabled = true|false are migrated to memory.backend = "local"|"off" exactly once on first launch.
