A CONCEPT · PROJECTED FROM THE VINDEX KNOWLEDGE GRAPH
RECURRENT STATE
a fixed-size carried memory
The continuation memory of linear-attention families: a fixed-size tensor per layer, updated every token, replacing the growing key/value cache.
Its geometry is a container fact — state dtype and shape come from the plan, never from architecture inference. A session's recurrent state crosses the runtime the way KV rows do: prepared from the plan's declared geometry, owned by the caller, resumed exactly.
