# S-component (State Store)

## 매 한 줄
> **"매 LLM agent 의 working memory + 영속 store"**. 매 LATS / LangGraph / Anthropic Memory Tool 2025 의 backbone 컴포넌트. 매 ephemeral conversation context 의 limit (200K-1M token) 을 넘어 agent 의 task-state, scratchpad, learned facts 를 영속화.

## 매 핵심

### 매 Layer
- **Working memory**: current turn 의 scratchpad (tool result, observations).
- **Episodic memory**: 매 session log + summarization.
- **Semantic memory**: extracted facts + embeddings (vector DB).
- **Procedural**: skill / playbook (file system).

### 매 vs Context Window
- Context = read-only attention. State = read-write.
- Context = volatile. State = persistent across sessions.
- Context = expensive (caching). State = cheap (KV / vector).

### 매 응용
1. Multi-session task agent (e.g., research assistant).
2. CRM-style customer history.
3. Coding agent 의 codebase index + recent edits.
4. Game NPC memory.

## 💻 패턴

### LangGraph state schema
```python
from typing import TypedDict, Annotated
from langgraph.graph import StateGraph
import operator

class AgentState(TypedDict):
    messages: Annotated[list, operator.add]
    scratchpad: dict
    tool_calls: Annotated[list, operator.add]
    final_answer: str | None

graph = StateGraph(AgentState)
graph.add_node("plan", planner)
graph.add_node("act", actor)
graph.add_edge("plan", "act")
```

### Anthropic Memory Tool 2025
```python
import anthropic
client = anthropic.Anthropic()

resp = client.messages.create(
    model="claude-opus-4-7",
    max_tokens=4096,
    tools=[{"type": "memory_20250604", "name": "memory"}],
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Remember: I prefer Python type hints."}],
    extra_headers={"anthropic-beta": "context-management-2025-06-04"},
)
# Memory persisted across calls; agent reads/writes via tool
```

### Redis-backed working state
```ts
import { createClient } from 'redis';
const redis = createClient({ url: process.env.REDIS_URL });

class AgentStateStore {
  async get(sessionId: string): Promise<AgentState> {
    const data = await redis.get(`agent:${sessionId}`);
    return data ? JSON.parse(data) : { scratchpad: {}, messages: [] };
  }
  async set(sessionId: string, state: AgentState) {
    await redis.set(`agent:${sessionId}`, JSON.stringify(state), { EX: 3600 });
  }
  async append(sessionId: string, msg: Message) {
    await redis.rPush(`agent:${sessionId}:msgs`, JSON.stringify(msg));
  }
}
```

### Vector store for semantic
```ts
import { Pinecone } from '@pinecone-database/pinecone';
const pc = new Pinecone();
const idx = pc.index('agent-memory');

async function remember(fact: string, embed: (s: string) => Promise<number[]>) {
  const vec = await embed(fact);
  await idx.upsert([{ id: crypto.randomUUID(), values: vec, metadata: { fact, ts: Date.now() }}]);
}
async function recall(query: string, embed: (s: string) => Promise<number[]>) {
  const vec = await embed(query);
  const r = await idx.query({ vector: vec, topK: 5, includeMetadata: true });
  return r.matches.map(m => m.metadata?.fact);
}
```

### Summarization compaction
```ts
async function compactState(s: AgentState): Promise<AgentState> {
  if (s.messages.length < 50) return s;
  const summary = await llm.summarize(s.messages.slice(0, 30));
  return { ...s, messages: [{role: 'system', content: summary}, ...s.messages.slice(30)] };
}
```

### S-component in 6-component pattern (S/T/L/I/M/E)
```ts
// S = State, T = Tools, L = LLM, I = Input, M = Memory, E = Effect
type Agent = {
  S: StateStore;
  T: ToolRegistry;
  L: LLMClient;
  I: InputParser;
  M: MemoryRetriever;
  E: SideEffectExecutor;
};
```

## 매 결정 기준
| 상황 | Approach |
|---|---|
| Single-turn, stateless | No S-component |
| Multi-turn, single session | In-memory map |
| Cross-session, single user | Redis / SQLite |
| Production multi-user | DB + vector store + memory tool |
| Coding agent | File system + git as state |

**기본값**: Redis + Postgres + Anthropic Memory Tool — 2026 의 production pattern.

- 응용: [[LangGraph]]
- Adjacent: [[T-component (Tool Registry)]]

## 🤖 LLM 활용
**언제**: state schema design, summarization prompt, recall query.
**언제 X**: high-throughput stateless API (overhead ↑).

## ❌ 안티패턴
- **Unbounded growth**: state 의 GC 부재 → cost explosion.
- **Stale state**: TTL 없는 cache 의 contradiction.
- **Tight coupling**: S 와 L 의 직접 dep → testing 어려움.
- **No versioning**: schema migration 깨짐.

## 🧪 검증 / 중복
- Verified (LangGraph docs, Anthropic Memory Tool 2025 release notes).
- 신뢰도 A.
