v0.18.0 - Task Brief Reports

Agent Memory Bridge 0.18.0 is a narrow context-assembly release over the v0.17
human review workflow.

0.18.0 = read-only Task Brief reports without expanding the MCP surface.

What Changed

• Added agent-memory-bridge task-brief, a CLI/report layered over existing
  task-memory assembly, review queue items, and active signals.
• The Task Brief report separates context into Used, Ignored, and
  Needs Review sections.
• Added a deterministic Task Brief benchmark snapshot at
  benchmark/latest-task-brief-report.json.
• The release contract now checks Task Brief facts alongside the existing
  retrieval, calibration, task-memory, procedure, contention, adversarial,
  memory-evolution, review-queue, and review-workflow snapshots.
• The public MCP surface remains unchanged at 10 tools.

Validation

• pytest: 312 passed
• release contract: passed
• public MCP surface: unchanged at 10 tools
• Task Brief benchmark:
  • task_brief_used_count = 2
  • task_brief_ignored_count = 1
  • task_brief_needs_review_count = 4
  • task_brief_review_queue_item_count = 2
  • task_brief_active_signal_count = 1
  • task_brief_no_auto_writeback = true
  • task_brief_public_mcp_surface_change = false
  • task_brief_needs_review_source_type_count = 3

Boundaries

This is still not:

• a new MCP tool
• an AMH runtime dependency
• a scheduler, watcher, or worker runtime
• an autonomous reviewer
• an automatic promotion, deletion, merge, or writeback path

task-brief is a derived operator report. Humans or external harnesses can use
it to inspect selected, suppressed, and review-needed context, but AMB core does
not treat the report as durable authority and does not execute durable mutation
from it.

Public MCP Surface

• store
• recall
• browse
