+  OpenViking is a long-term memory management system for AI Agents, originally open-sourced by
+  Volcengine, with the user currently maintaining a local instance and developing it as a
+  memory-openviking plugin compatible with the OpenClaw environment. The system employs a
+  front-end/back-end separated architecture built around an AGFS foundation... [1200+ chars]
+  ```
+
+  **✅ GOOD content** (concise, fact-dense):
+  ```
+  OpenViking (OV): 火山引擎开源 AI Agent 长期记忆系统，用户本地维护。Python+AGFS，viking:// URI，
+  L0-L4 分层上下文。本地 oMLX 4bit-DWQ embedding，dashscope/qwen3.5-plus VLM。
+  296 记忆文件，2872 向量，34MB vectordb。
+  ```
+
+  **❌ BAD content** (single memory with too many topics):
+  ```
+  Lossless-Claw (LCM v0.2.8) was a third-party LLM context auto-compression plugin...
+  The disablement resulted from fatal defects... The Meridian project now serves as
+  the successor... [1400+ chars mixing entity + cause + successor]
+  ```
+
+  **✅ GOOD** (split into separate memories):
+  Memory 1 [entities]: `Lossless-Claw (LCM v0.2.8): OpenClaw LLM 压缩插件，Martian-Engineering 开发，2026-03-10 已禁用。`
+  Memory 2 [cases]: `LCM 禁用原因：estimateTokens 对 CJK 低估 3x；assemble() 无预算控制致注入膨胀。`
+  Memory 3 [entities]: `Meridian: LCM 后继，复用~1200行。SQLite+FTS5、tiktoken、三区预算硬分配。`
