/**
 * narrativePipeline — beats-based memory preset.
 *
 * Compresses each turn into `NarrativeBeat`s on write, recalls them
 * as a story paragraph on read. Two subflows, shared store:
 *
 *   READ  :  LoadRecent → PickByBudget → FormatAsNarrative
 *   WRITE :  ExtractBeats → WriteBeats
 *
 * Contrast with `defaultPipeline` (raw messages, block-formatted) —
 * the read side is structurally identical; only the format stage and
 * write path differ. `LoadRecent` + `PickByBudget` don't care whether
 * the entry payload is a `Message` or a `NarrativeBeat` — they operate
 * on `MemoryEntry<T>` generically.
 *
 * **Why narrative memory?**
 *   Raw-message recall grows linearly with conversation length and
 *   loses salience signal. Beats compress 100 turns of chat into
 *   ~20 summary sentences, each with `refs[]` traceable back to the
 *   source messages. The picker prefers high-importance beats; the
 *   formatter composes them into a single cohesive paragraph.
 *
 * **Default extractor**: `heuristicExtractor()` — zero-dep, zero-cost.
 * Produces sensible-but-baseline beats. Opt into `llmExtractor({ provider })`
 * when you want semantic quality.
 *
 * @example
 * Most consumers reach for `narrativePipeline` indirectly through
 * `defineMemory({ type: MEMORY_TYPES.NARRATIVE, strategy: { kind:
 * MEMORY_STRATEGIES.EXTRACT, extractor: 'pattern' | 'llm' }, store })`.
 *
 * @example Direct usage (low-level — custom flowchart composition):
 * ```ts
 * import { narrativePipeline, llmExtractor, InMemoryStore } from 'agentfootprint/memory';
 *
 * // Cheap default — heuristic beats, no LLM cost.
 * const pipeline = narrativePipeline({ store: new InMemoryStore() });
 *
 * // Or opt into LLM-backed beats (pass any LLMProvider):
 * const pipelineHQ = narrativePipeline({
 *   store: new InMemoryStore(),
 *   extractor: llmExtractor({ provider: yourLLMProvider }),
 * });
 * ```
