147156 A `memory` object: a single text document at a hierarchical path inside a memory store. The `content` field is populated when `view=full` and `null` when `view=basic`; the `content_size_bytes` and `content_sha256` fields are always populated so sync clients can diff without fetching content. Memories are addressed by their `mem_...` ID; the path is the create key and can be changed via update.
