Put a wrong belief right
Can I correct what it believes?
See how a fact your agents hold changed over time, and undo a correction that was itself wrong.
What you get: a memory you can audit. Every fact an agent holds keeps its history, with the reason each change was made, and a bad correction can be reversed without losing anything.
Ask Quox
Section titled “Ask Quox”Tell Quox a fact, then correct it, in your own words:
Remember this fact for me: the proof-9f9be6 test colour is teal. Then update that same memory (do not save a second one) so it says the colour is green.

Done. I saved the fact that the proof-9f9be6 test colour is teal, then updated that same memory entry to say the colour is green. No second memory was created.

Quox saved the fact, then updated that same memory rather than saving a second one. The old version is kept in the memory’s history, which is what the steps below read.
Do it yourself

When a belief is corrected, the old version stays here as replaced, with the reason in Replaced because, and the new version becomes current.
To see every decision that changed over time, newest change first:

Section titled “3. Undo a wrong correction”If a correction was itself the mistake, make the replaced belief current again:
quox memory reinstate <id-of-the-belief-that-was-right>What just happened
Section titled “What just happened”Nothing was deleted at any step. A correction replaces a belief but keeps it in the history, and reinstating swaps them back. Agents read the current belief, and you can always see how it got there.
Check it yourself
Section titled “Check it yourself”Run quox memory history <id> again after a reinstate: the belief that was right is current, and the correction is kept as replaced.
reinstate only changes which version is current; both stay in the history.
