How to Persist AI Agent Context Deterministically

Discover why standard MCP wiring makes context persistence optional (the model calls the tool only when it decides to) and what to do instead. We walk through how to treat persistence as control flow rather than reasoning, using your own code as the MCP client, so the write always happens. Finally, we prove this with a working Strands agent that logs every step to Meko, and audit the trace from a separate process to confirm the context survived.
