There have been documented cases where a human who is suffering from short term memory loss repeat themselves verbatim to a given stimulus. This leads me to believe that one of the missing links is only short/long term memory.

Yeah, I think that's right. An agent should maintain a model of its environment in memory, and continually update the model according to its experiences. Then it should act to fill in incomplete portions of the model (explore unfamiliar terrain, research poorly understood topics, etc).
