Everything is just context, of course. Every time I see a blog post on "the nine types of agentic memory" or some such I have a similar reaction.

I would say that systems like this are about getting the agent to correctly choose the precisely correct context snippet for the exact subtask it's doing at a given point within a larger workflow. Obviously you could also do that manually, but that doesn't scale to running many agents in parallel, or running automomously for longer durations.
