Conversations with chat assistants increasingly span many topics in a single long-running thread, challenging memory systems. Existing long-context and memory benchmarks often expose session or topic boundaries, or probe direct personal-memory questions. These settings understate a harder assistant-memory regime: a flat mixed-topic thread where the system must infer which earlier episode makes a later task decision valid. We introduce SCALE-QA, a constraint-grounded task QA benchmark for flat unsegmented threads targeting episode integrity failure. The dataset contains 3,000 audited questions across 10 domains, uses deterministic four-way multiple-choice grading, and includes a deterministic runtime builder; experiments use all 3,000 questions through 128k and a stratified 400-question diagnostic at 1M. SCALE-QA questions are ordinary task-oriented requests whose correct answer depends on causally related evidence introduced earlier in the conversation. We also propose Temporal-Semantic Interleaved Memory Reconstruction (TSIM), which segments the turn stream into coherent episodes and indexes them through a hierarchical multi-view memory stack with deterministic episode-level summary and cluster-routing views. Experiments show that SCALE-QA challenges strong RAG baselines and long-context LLMs alike; across three open-source and proprietary LLM backends, TSIM achieves the highest accuracy in every backend setting, gaining 5.6-17.6 accuracy points over the strongest corresponding baseline.
