In long-horizon multi-party conversations, human-centric AI agents face a persistent structural problem: similarity-based retrieval may fail to reconnect semantically dispersed fragments of the same evolving event. This problem severely weakens causal continuity and multi-hop context recovery. To improve attribution trust and reduce structural erasure, we propose MemLoom, a dual-loop causality-traceable retrieval framework that organizes conversational history as an event memory graph. MemLoom decouples latency-sensitive online interaction from off-peak structural curation through online event formation, sentence-level buffering, asynchronous neuro-symbolic graph synthesis, and bounded dual-stream retrieval. Evaluations across QMSum, LoCoMo, and the synthetic causal diagnostic suite (SCDS) support the structural utility of MemLoom. For LoCoMo, under our unified local evaluation setup, MemLoom shows favorable temporal and multi-hop reasoning results (J = 65.77 and 58.14) relative to contemporary agentic baselines, such as Mem0, Zep, and A-Mem. For SCDS, within a controlled diagnostic setting, it recovers demanded causal chains more reliably than GraphRAG (SCR = 0.72 vs. 0.35) and maintains stronger answer-level auditability (AA = 0.80 vs. 0.50). This is achieved with a bounded online P95 latency of 1.67 s. These results indicate that asynchronous dual-loop stewardship has practical value for causality-traceable, event-centric conversational memory in multi-party settings.
