The authors diagnose two distinct bottlenecks in agent memory, access and aggregation, and show that retrieval alone fails when answers require combining many events.

The authors separate two demands on an agent's memory: evidence access, keeping the relevant steps intact, and aggregation, combining events into counts, lists or timelines.
