StaleMind
An interactive simulator showing how AI agents silently act on stale knowledge — the failure mode most vector stores don’t warn you about.
The agent’s memory has temporal debt. Facts from 30, 60, or 90 days ago are retrieved with the same confidence as today’s facts. Without freshness checks or TTL policies, every retrieval is a gamble against time. Features 6 memory entries with staleness visualization, time-advance controls, and 6 preset queries that each trigger a specific failure outcome. Agent Failure Series #16.
