Your AI Agent Remembers the Attacker: Memory Is Not Authority

Persistent agent memory can retain credentials, sensitive data and poisoned instructions. Memory should remain context, never authoritative evidence.

The development

A security review found coding-agent memory storing credentials and sensitive information and highlighted poisoning paths through plugins, skills and MCP integrations.

The authority gap

Remembered credentials, instructions or approvals do not become current authority merely because the agent persisted them.

The Authrizd approach

Authrizd treats memory as context, not authoritative evidence. Consequential effects must still resolve to current mandate and delegation.

Enterprise implication

AI capability should not silently expand enterprise authority. Consequential effects should be independently adjudicated and evidenced before execution.
