SummaryThe paper introduces action-conditioned memory verification for long-lived agents, framing the choice of which memory premises to re-verify before acting as a sequential stopping problem. AMV-Guard extracts action premises, calibrates beliefs about their correctness, and selects checks via bounded value-of-information. On ToolSandbox it cuts mean verification cost by 33.9% while keeping 100% safe-proceed recall; on AppWorld it reduces cost by 21.3% with a small recall trade-off.
Why it mattersProposes conditioning memory verification on action consequence rather than memory reliability, backed by a concrete gate and measured gains on two agent benchmarks.
