# Publication Boundary

This is a matched internal LoCoMo reference, not a universal leaderboard or SOTA claim. All three systems were scored on the same 1,986 question IDs with DeepSeek V4 Flash as answer model and Grok-4.5 as judge. J-score and official-style mean are separate metrics. Retrieval implementation and supplied context are the systems under test; unmatched latency and provider-cost telemetry are not ranked.

The repository owner directed immediate publication on 2026-07-15 without a completed pre-publication right-of-reply window. That waiver is disclosed rather than represented as a competitor response. Zep and Mem0 are invited to reproduce the run, identify configuration errors, and provide corrections for publication alongside the receipts.
