Unclear Nothing has been read yet about how the tengu_extract_memories_extraction gate is currently set for this site's account, so no statement is made about whether relayFork is active, and what relayFork changes in extraction behavior is not described.

What

  • The forked-agent execution function now accepts a new relayFork option and threads it into the underlying query call, alongside the existing compactionRequestKind and thinkingStripPlan options.
  • The memory-extraction path (extract_memories) sets relayFork based on a new gate combined with a sync check, and logs the value in telemetry as relay_fork.
  • The gate reads a feature flag (tengu_wild_tome), so relayFork is off by default.

Why

This is internal plumbing for a new relay-based mode for forked and background queries such as memory extraction; since it's gated behind a disabled flag, it has no visible effect yet.
