Ask memory a question

Answer a question about the person or their business from Dynamic Memory only, e.g. “How did they start the agency?” or “What do they believe about cold outreach?”. Returns a short answer whose sentences cite memories as [n] (hits[n-1]), the cited item ids, and supported=false with “I don’t have that in memory yet.” when nothing in memory answers it. Never guess beyond the answer.
