# Temporal Lattice Memory

Temporal Lattice Memory (TLM) tracks how work moves across several time frames. It keeps parallel views of activity so the system can see what is fresh, what has been active for longer and what has gone quiet.

The shorter windows react quickly, while the longer ones hold work that stretches across days. TLM does not store content. It tracks motion, pauses and duration. This shows how work changes without rewriting the information itself.

TLM gives the system its sense of time. It anchors the structure from the Work Graph into these windows so the AAOS knows what was worked on recently, what has continued and what has slowed down.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://toggle.gitbook.io/togglex/architecture-1/temporal-lattice-memory.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
