Strategic Compact Skill

Optimize context window usage through strategic compaction.

Purpose

When context is filling up:

• •Suggest what to compact/summarize
• •Prioritize retention of critical info
• •Maintain coherent conversation flow

Compaction Triggers

High Priority (Never Compact)

• •Current task details
• •Active file changes
• •User requirements
• •Critical decisions made

Medium Priority (Summarize)

• •Previous subtasks
• •Resolved issues
• •Earlier exploration

Low Priority (Can Remove)

• •Verbose tool outputs
• •Failed attempts (keep summary)
• •Redundant information
