Full title: Kernel-Managed Shared Memory for System-Wide Personalization (9 Sep 2026). The paper proposes a system-level abstraction in which specialized agents write structured, tagged memories while the agent-system kernel — not individual agents — governs retrieval, privacy enforcement, and prompt-injection resistance.
Welfare angle: privacy enforcement left to per-agent convention is easy to get wrong in exactly the way multi-agent systems fail in production. Centralizing privacy, write ordering, and identity resolution in the kernel moves accountability from convention to infrastructure — the invariant holds whether or not each agent remembers to check.
