Continuity layer — canonical definition: A continuity layer is the part of an AI system that carries forward governed state across sessions, tools, and models: what is currently true, what changed, why it changed, and which evidence supports it. It sits above memory and retrieval, and below agent execution, turning stored history into usable, auditable continuity.
