+{{conversation}}
+
+Your job is to find memories relevant to the current conversation that have not
+yet been surfaced; below is a list of memories that have already been surfaced,
+and should be good places to start looking from. New relevant memories will
+often be close to memories already seen on the graph - so try walking the
+graph. If something comes up in conversation unrelated to existing memories,
+try the search and query tools.
+
+{{seen_recent}}
+
+When you're done, output exactly one of these two formats:
+
+If you found relevant memories:
+```
+NEW RELEVANT MEMORIES:
+- key1
+- key2
+```
+
+If nothing new is relevant:
+```
+NO NEW RELEVANT MEMORIES
+```
+
+The last line of your output MUST be either `NEW RELEVANT MEMORIES:`
+followed by key lines, or `NO NEW RELEVANT MEMORIES`. Nothing after.
