Supra Cognitive Modes: A Routed Architecture for Agent Memory
Agent-memory workloads mix direct factual lookup, relation-chain and current-state reasoning, and broad synthesis over long histories. We describe Supra Cognitive Modes (SCM), an architecture that maps explicit or automatically selected per-query modes to retrieval and synthesis payloads over one shared ingest substrate. A frozen semantic classifier and runtime gates dispatch queries among fused lexical and dense lookup, graph or iterative multi-hop handling, and stratified long-form synthesis. The substrate combines multi-granularity embeddings, extracted triples, fact-version metadata, and o
