Look Before You Leap: Thermodynamic Arbitration of Parametric and Non-Parametric Knowledge in LLM Agents via Self-Regulating Memory Architectures

The architecture of modern LLMs consists of a profound cognitive polarization. LLMs possess implicit intuition encoded in their parameters, yet rely on a disconnected, explicit mechanism to access the outside world. Agentic frameworks have not bridged this gap; instead, models are often compelled in
