+## Memory Lifecycle Stages
+
+### Memory Creation and Ingestion
+
+```typescript

+## Memory Decay and Reinforcement
+
+### Adaptive Decay Models
+
+```typescript

+
+## Memory Consolidation Strategies
+
+### Semantic Consolidation
+
+```typescript

+
+## Memory Expiration and Archival
+
+### Intelligent Expiration
+
+```typescript

+
+## Memory Archival Strategies
+
+### Hierarchical Archival
+
+```typescript

+## Lifecycle Monitoring

+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Implement gradual decay** rather than hard expiration
+2. **Use semantic consolidation** to merge similar memories
+3. **Maintain importance scores** based on access patterns
+4. **Create periodic summaries** to preserve context
+5. **Archive rather than delete** when possible
+6. **Monitor retention metrics** to optimize lifecycle parameters
+7. **Use tiered storage** for cost optimization
+8. **Implement relationship preservation** during consolidation
+9. **Apply adaptive expiration** based on memory type and usage
+10. **Regular deduplication** to optimize storage
+
+Always balance storage efficiency with information preservation to maintain companion context quality.
