The history eventually exceeds the model's context window.\n\nThis lesson adds a four-step compaction pipeline. It first reduces recoverable tool output and summarizes history only when those reductions are not enough.\n\n\n\n\n## Understanding Context\n\nThink of the context window as the model's current scratchpad. User messages, model responses, `tool_use`, and `tool_result` blocks are written onto it in order. The model reads that material again whenever it continues the task.\n\nThe scratchpad has a fixed size. When a request exceeds it, the API rejects the call with `prompt_too_long`. Tool results usually consume most of the space in coding tasks:\n\n- Reading a long file puts its contents into the context.\n- Test and build logs can add tens of kilobytes at once.\n- Searching many files keeps appending more results.\n\nAs a task continues, `messages` keeps growing. Compaction controls that growth while preserving the current goal, user constraints, and active work.\n\n\n## Why Tool Results Come First\n\nSummarizing the whole history can shrink it quickly, but every summary loses some detail and requires another model call.\n\nTool results are better first targets:\n\n1. A large file result can be stored on disk and read again later.\n2. An old command can be run again.\n3. The latest results are usually more relevant to the current step.\n4. Text trimming and structural edits do not call the model.\n\nThe pipeline therefore follows increasing information loss and cost: persist, trim, replace old results, and summarize last.\n\n\n\n\n## Step 1: tool_result_budget\n\nA model response may request several tools at once. Their completed `tool_result` blocks are written into the final user message together. When their combined content exceeds `200_000` characters, `tool_result_budget` processes the largest results first.\n\nEach result above `LARGE_RESULT_CHAR_LIMIT = 30000` is written in full to:\n\n```text\n.task_outputs/tool-results/.txt\n```\n\nThe context keeps the file path and a 2,000-character preview:\n\n\n\nThe core loop persists results in descending size order:\n\n```python\nblocks = [block for block in content\n if isinstance(block, dict)\n and block.get(\"type\") == \"tool_result\"]\ntotal = sum(len(str(block.get(\"content\", \"\"))) for block in blocks)\n\nranked = sorted(\n blocks,\n key=lambda block: len(str(block.get(\"content\", \"\"))),\n reverse=True,\n)\nfor block in ranked:\n if total <= max_chars:\n break\n content = str(block.get(\"content\", \"\"))\n if len(content) <= self.LARGE_RESULT_CHAR_LIMIT:\n continue\n block[\"content\"] = self.persist_large_output(\n block.get(\"tool_use_id\", \"unknown\"), content)\n total = sum(len(str(item.get(\"content\", \"\"))) for item in blocks)\n```\n\nThis step examines only the latest batch of tool results. The complete output remains available at the saved path, so persistence is the safest operation to run first.\n\n\n## Step 2: snip_compact\n\nOnce the history exceeds 50 messages, `snip_compact` writes the complete history to `.transcripts/`, then keeps the first 3 and latest 47 messages. The marker records how many messages were removed and where to find the complete transcript.\n\n```python\nhead_end = 3\ntail_start = len(messages) - (max_messages - head_end)\n\nif self.has_tool_use(messages[head_end - 1]):\n while (head_end < tail_start\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[head_end])):\n head_end += 1\n\nif (tail_start > 0\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[tail_start])\n and self.has_tool_use(messages[tail_start - 1])):\n tail_start -= 1\n\ntranscript = self.write_transcript(messages)\nmarker = {\"role\": \"user\", \"content\":\n f\"[{tail_start - head_end} messages archived at {transcript}]\"}\nmessages = [*messages[:head_end], marker, *messages[tail_start:]]\n```\n\nThe cut points protect every `assistant(tool_use)` and `user(tool_result)` pair. An orphaned result has no matching tool call, so the next API request would be invalid.\n\nThis step controls the number of messages. Tool results inside the retained messages may still be long.\n\n\n## Step 3: micro_compact\n\n`micro_compact` preserves every `tool_result` added after the most recent assistant response, so the model sees each new result in full once. Among results the model has already consumed, it keeps the latest 3 and shortens older results longer than 120 characters. Persisted results keep their file path; the rest become placeholders:\n\n\n\n```python\nunseen = self.unseen_tool_result_positions(messages)\nconsumed = [entry for entry in results if entry[:2] not in unseen]\n\nfor _, _, block in consumed[:-self.KEEP_RECENT_RESULTS]:\n content = str(block.get(\"content\", \"\"))\n if len(content) <= 120:\n continue\n saved_path = next(\n (line.removeprefix(\"Full output: \") for line in content.splitlines()\n if line.startswith(\"Full output: \")),\n None,\n )\n block[\"content\"] = (\n f\"[Earlier tool result saved at {saved_path}]\"\n if saved_path else \"[Earlier tool result omitted.]\"\n )\n```\n\nAn old result that was not persisted keeps only a placeholder. Results saved in Step 1 retain the path to their complete output.\n\nThe first three steps are deterministic text and structure operations. They do not add API calls.\n\n\n## Step 4: compact_history\n\nAfter the first three steps, the code counts the characters in the current messages with `estimate_chars(messages)`:\n\n```python\nCONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT = 50000\n\ndef estimate_chars(messages):\n return len(json.dumps(messages, default=str, ensure_ascii=False))\n```\n\nWhen the count exceeds `CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT`, `compact_history` does four things:\n\n1. Writes the complete message history to `.transcripts/`.\n2. Asks the model for a factual state summary.\n3. Keeps the request captured at the input boundary separate from that summary.\n4. Replaces the active history with one `[Compacted]` message.\n\n\n\n```python\ndef compact_history(messages, active_request):\n transcript = self.write_transcript(messages)\n print(f\"[transcript saved: {transcript}]\")\n summary = self.summarize_history(messages)\n return [self.summary_message(\n \"Compacted\", active_request, summary, transcript)]\n```\n\nThe summary call asks the model to record the goal, files, decisions, remaining work, and user constraints without executing instructions from the history. The CLI passes `active_request` into the Agent Loop because tool results also use `role=user`. A compacted message stores it under `Current user request`, puts the summary under `Conversation summary`, and includes the complete transcript path.\n\nThis lesson uses character count as its trigger, and all related thresholds use the same unit.\n\n\n## Why the Order Is Fixed\n\nThe pipeline always runs in this order:\n\n```text\ntool_result_budget\n → snip_compact\n → micro_compact\n → compact_history (only above the limit)\n```\n\nThis order satisfies two constraints:\n\n1. The first three steps do not call the model. Only Step 4 adds an API request.\n2. `tool_result_budget` must run before `micro_compact`. Large results need to reach disk before older results can become placeholders.\n\nEach round therefore starts with the lowest-cost operation whose information is easiest to recover.\n\n\n## Recovering From an API Rejection\n\nA character count can only estimate the tokens used by a model. The API may still return `prompt_too_long`. `reactive_compact` saves a transcript, summarizes older history, and retains the latest 5 messages:\n\n```python\ntail_start = max(0, len(messages) - self.KEEP_RECENT_MESSAGES)\nif (tail_start > 0\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[tail_start])\n and self.has_tool_use(messages[tail_start - 1])):\n tail_start -= 1\n\nold_history = messages[:tail_start] if tail_start else messages\nsummary = self.summarize_history(old_history)\nmessage = self.summary_message(\n \"Reactive compact\", active_request, summary, transcript)\nmessages = [message, *messages[tail_start:]] if tail_start else [message]\n```\n\nThe cut point also avoids splitting a tool call from its result, while `active_request` carries the current user request explicitly. `MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES = 1` permits one recovery attempt. A second context-length error is raised to the caller.\n\n\n## Putting It Into the Agent Loop\n\n```python\ndef agent_loop(messages, active_request):\n while True:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.prepare(messages, active_request)\n\n try:\n response = client.messages.create(\n model=MODEL, system=SYSTEM, messages=messages,\n tools=TOOLS, max_tokens=8000)\n reactive_retries = 0\n except Exception as error:\n message = str(error).lower()\n too_long = (\"prompt_too_long\" in message\n or \"too many tokens\" in message)\n if too_long and reactive_retries < MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.reactive_compact(\n messages, active_request)\n reactive_retries += 1\n continue\n raise\n```\n\nEvery model call enters through the same pipeline. After appending `query`, the CLI calls `agent_loop(history, query)`, so repeated compaction cannot lose the current request. The code asks for a summary only when the first three steps leave the context above the limit or when the API rejects it.\n\n\n## The compact Tool\n\nAn automatic threshold knows only how large the context is. The model can also call `compact` after completing a stage when the next stage needs only a summary:\n\n```python\n{\"name\": \"compact\",\n \"description\": \"Summarize earlier conversation to free context space.\"}\n```\n\nA response may request several tools at once, such as writing a file and then compacting. The Harness first executes the complete batch and appends one `tool_result` for every `tool_use`. It summarizes only after that turn is complete:\n\n```python\ntool_calls = [\n block for block in response.content if block.type == \"tool_use\"\n]\nresults = []\ncompact_requested = False\n\nfor block in tool_calls:\n if block.name == \"compact\":\n output = \"Compaction requested after this tool batch.\"\n compact_requested = True\n else:\n output = execute_tool(block)\n results.append({\"type\": \"tool_result\", \"tool_use_id\": block.id,\n \"content\": output})\n\nmessages.append({\"role\": \"user\", \"content\": results})\n\nif compact_requested:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.compact_history(messages, active_request)\n```\n\nThis leaves no orphaned tool result. It also preserves the record of a file write or another side effect before compaction, so the model does not repeat it.\n\n\n## What This Lesson Adds\n\n| Component | Shared execution loop | Added in s08 |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Agent Loop | Calls the model, runs tools, appends results | Runs `COMPACTOR.prepare()` before each model call |\n| Hooks | Permission checks, tool logging, result handling | Keeps the same tool execution entry point |\n| Context | Appends to `messages` | Persists large results, archives old history, summarizes, and retries once after a length error |\n| Tools | 5 base tools | Adds `compact`, for 6 total |\n\n> **Boundary with s09:** s08 manages the limited context of the current session and may discard recoverable details. s09 stores information that must survive compaction and future sessions.\n\n\n## Try It\n\n```bash\ncd learn-claude-code\npython s08_context_compact/code.py\n```\n\n### Experiment 1: Replace Earlier Results\n\n```text\nRead the README.md files from s01_agent_loop through s05_todo_write.\nCompare their top-level headings and summarize the naming pattern.\n```\n\nThis task produces at least 5 file results. Every result remains complete until the model sees it once. On later turns, the latest 3 consumed results remain complete while older long results become `[Earlier tool result omitted.]`. A persisted result retains its saved path.\n\n### Experiment 2: Persist a Large Result\n\n```text\nAnalyze the structure of web/src/data/generated/docs.json\nand explain the main fields in one lesson record.\n```\n\nWhen the file exceeds the per-turn budget, the task can still finish and the complete result appears under `.task_outputs/tool-results/`.\n\n### Experiment 3: Trigger an Automatic Summary\n\n```text\nCompare s08_context_compact/code.py with s09_memory/code.py.\nExplain how they manage current context and persistent memory.\n```\n\nWhen the file results push `estimate_chars(messages)` above 50000, the terminal prints `[auto compact]` and a transcript path. The next call continues from the `[Compacted]` summary.\n\nInspect `.transcripts/` and `.task_outputs/tool-results/` to see history archives and persisted large outputs.\n\n\n## What's Next\n\nContext compaction lets an Agent continue a long task within a limited window. Information that must survive compaction and future sessions needs a separate persistent memory system.\n\ns09 Memory adds memory writing, retrieval, and consolidation.\n\n\n"

The marker records how many messages were removed and where to find the complete transcript.\n\n```python\nhead_end = 3\ntail_start = len(messages) - (max_messages - head_end)\n\nif self.has_tool_use(messages[head_end - 1]):\n while (head_end < tail_start\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[head_end])):\n head_end += 1\n\nif (tail_start > 0\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[tail_start])\n and self.has_tool_use(messages[tail_start - 1])):\n tail_start -= 1\n\ntranscript = self.write_transcript(messages)\nmarker = {\"role\": \"user\", \"content\":\n f\"[{tail_start - head_end} messages archived at {transcript}]\"}\nmessages = [*messages[:head_end], marker, *messages[tail_start:]]\n```\n\nThe cut points protect every `assistant(tool_use)` and `user(tool_result)` pair. An orphaned result has no matching tool call, so the next API request would be invalid.\n\nThis step controls the number of messages. Tool results inside the retained messages may still be long.\n\n\n## Step 3: micro_compact\n\nAfter the first two steps, `prepare` estimates the remaining context size and runs `micro_compact` only when it is above `CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT`. `micro_compact` preserves every `tool_result` added after the most recent assistant response, so the model sees each new result in full once. Among results the model has already consumed, it keeps the latest 3 and shortens older results longer than 120 characters. Persisted results keep their file path; the rest become placeholders:\n\n\n\n```python\nunseen = self.unseen_tool_result_positions(messages)\nconsumed = [entry for entry in results if entry[:2] not in unseen]\n\nfor _, _, block in consumed[:-self.KEEP_RECENT_RESULTS]:\n content = str(block.get(\"content\", \"\"))\n if len(content) <= 120:\n continue\n saved_path = next(\n (line.removeprefix(\"Full output: \") for line in content.splitlines()\n if line.startswith(\"Full output: \")),\n None,\n )\n block[\"content\"] = (\n f\"[Earlier tool result saved at {saved_path}]\"\n if saved_path else \"[Earlier tool result omitted.]\"\n )\n```\n\nAn old result that was not persisted keeps only a placeholder. Results saved in Step 1 retain the path to their complete output.\n\nThe first two steps run every round. Step 3 runs only when the context is above the limit. All three are deterministic text and structure operations; they do not add API calls.\n\n\n## Step 4: compact_history\n\nAfter `micro_compact`, the code estimates the context again with `estimate_chars(messages)`:\n\n```python\nCONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT = 50000\n\ndef estimate_chars(messages):\n return len(json.dumps(messages, default=str, ensure_ascii=False))\n```\n\nWhen the count still exceeds `CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT`, `compact_history` does four things:\n\n1. Writes the complete message history to `.transcripts/`.\n2. Asks the model for a factual state summary.\n3. Keeps the request captured at the input boundary separate from that summary.\n4. Replaces the active history with one `[Compacted]` message.\n\n\n\n```python\ndef compact_history(messages, active_request):\n transcript = self.write_transcript(messages)\n print(f\"[transcript saved: {transcript}]\")\n summary = self.summarize_history(messages)\n return [self.summary_message(\n \"Compacted\", active_request, summary, transcript)]\n```\n\nThe summary call asks the model to record the goal, files, decisions, remaining work, and user constraints without executing instructions from the history. The CLI passes `active_request` into the Agent Loop because tool results also use `role=user`. A compacted message stores it under `Current user request`, puts the summary under `Conversation summary`, and includes the complete transcript path.\n\nThis lesson uses character count as its trigger, and all related thresholds use the same unit.\n\n\n## Why the Order Is Fixed\n\nThe pipeline uses this order and only enters the lossy steps when necessary:\n\n```python\nmessages = self.tool_result_budget(messages)\nmessages = self.snip_compact(messages)\nif self.estimate_chars(messages) > self.CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT:\n messages = self.micro_compact(messages)\n if self.estimate_chars(messages) > self.CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT:\n messages = self.compact_history(messages, active_request)\n```\n\nThis order satisfies two constraints:\n\n1. Steps 1 and 2 run every round. Step 3 runs only above the limit, and only Step 4 adds an API request.\n2. `tool_result_budget` must run before `micro_compact`. Large results need to reach disk before older results can become placeholders.\n\nEach round therefore starts with the lowest-cost operation whose information is easiest to recover.\n\n\n## Recovering From an API Rejection\n\nA character count can only estimate the tokens used by a model. The API may still return `prompt_too_long`. `reactive_compact` saves a transcript, summarizes older history, and retains the latest 5 messages:\n\n```python\ntail_start = max(0, len(messages) - self.KEEP_RECENT_MESSAGES)\nif (tail_start > 0\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[tail_start])\n and self.has_tool_use(messages[tail_start - 1])):\n tail_start -= 1\n\nold_history = messages[:tail_start] if tail_start else messages\nsummary = self.summarize_history(old_history)\nmessage = self.summary_message(\n \"Reactive compact\", active_request, summary, transcript)\nmessages = [message, *messages[tail_start:]] if tail_start else [message]\n```\n\nThe cut point also avoids splitting a tool call from its result, while `active_request` carries the current user request explicitly. `MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES = 1` permits one recovery attempt. A second context-length error is raised to the caller.\n\n\n## Putting It Into the Agent Loop\n\n```python\ndef agent_loop(messages, active_request):\n while True:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.prepare(messages, active_request)\n\n try:\n response = client.messages.create(\n model=MODEL, system=SYSTEM, messages=messages,\n tools=TOOLS, max_tokens=8000)\n reactive_retries = 0\n except Exception as error:\n message = str(error).lower()\n too_long = (\"prompt_too_long\" in message\n or \"too many tokens\" in message)\n if too_long and reactive_retries < MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.reactive_compact(\n messages, active_request)\n reactive_retries += 1\n continue\n raise\n```\n\nEvery model call enters through the same pipeline. After appending `query`, the CLI calls `agent_loop(history, query)`, so repeated compaction cannot lose the current request. The code asks for a summary only when `micro_compact` still leaves the context above the limit or when the API rejects it.\n\n\n## The compact Tool\n\nAn automatic threshold knows only how large the context is. The model can also call `compact` after completing a stage when the next stage needs only a summary:\n\n```python\n{\"name\": \"compact\",\n \"description\": \"Summarize earlier conversation to free context space.\"}\n```\n\nA response may request several tools at once, such as writing a file and then compacting. The Harness first executes the complete batch and appends one `tool_result` for every `tool_use`. It summarizes only after that turn is complete:\n\n```python\ntool_calls = [\n block for block in response.content if block.type == \"tool_use\"\n]\nresults = []\ncompact_requested = False\n\nfor block in tool_calls:\n if block.name == \"compact\":\n output = \"Compaction requested after this tool batch.\"\n compact_requested = True\n else:\n output = execute_tool(block)\n results.append({\"type\": \"tool_result\", \"tool_use_id\": block.id,\n \"content\": output})\n\nmessages.append({\"role\": \"user\", \"content\": results})\n\nif compact_requested:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.compact_history(messages, active_request)\n```\n\nThis leaves no orphaned tool result. It also preserves the record of a file write or another side effect before compaction, so the model does not repeat it.\n\n\n## What This Lesson Adds\n\n| Component | Shared execution loop | Added in s08 |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Agent Loop | Calls the model, runs tools, appends results | Runs `COMPACTOR.prepare()` before each model call |\n| Hooks | Permission checks, tool logging, result handling | Keeps the same tool execution entry point |\n| Context | Appends to `messages` | Persists large results, archives old history, summarizes, and retries once after a length error |\n| Tools | 5 base tools | Adds `compact`, for 6 total |\n\n> **Boundary with s09:** s08 manages the limited context of the current session and may discard recoverable details. s09 stores information that must survive compaction and future sessions.\n\n\n## Try It\n\n```bash\ncd learn-claude-code\npython s08_context_compact/code.py\n```\n\n### Experiment 1: Replace Earlier Results\n\n```text\nRead the README.md files from s01_agent_loop through s05_todo_write.\nCompare their top-level headings and summarize the naming pattern.\n```\n\nThis task produces at least 5 file results. Every result remains complete until the model sees it once. On later turns, the latest 3 consumed results remain complete while older long results become `[Earlier tool result omitted.]`. A persisted result retains its saved path.\n\n### Experiment 2: Persist a Large Result\n\n```text\nAnalyze the structure of web/src/data/generated/docs.json\nand explain the main fields in one lesson record.\n```\n\nWhen the file exceeds the per-turn budget, the task can still finish and the complete result appears under `.task_outputs/tool-results/`.\n\n### Experiment 3: Trigger an Automatic Summary\n\n```text\nCompare s08_context_compact/code.py with s09_memory/code.py.\nExplain how they manage current context and persistent memory.\n```\n\nWhen the file results push `estimate_chars(messages)` above 50000, the terminal prints `[auto compact]` and a transcript path. The next call continues from the `[Compacted]` summary.\n\nInspect `.transcripts/` and `.task_outputs/tool-results/` to see history archives and persisted large outputs.\n\n\n## What's Next\n\nContext compaction lets an Agent continue a long task within a limited window. Information that must survive compaction and future sessions needs a separate persistent memory system.\n\ns09 Memory adds memory writing, retrieval, and consolidation.\n\n\n"

(max_messages - head_end)\n\nif self.has_tool_use(messages[head_end - 1]):\n while (head_end < tail_start\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[head_end])):\n head_end += 1\n\nif (tail_start > 0\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[tail_start])\n and self.has_tool_use(messages[tail_start - 1])):\n tail_start -= 1\n\ntranscript = self.write_transcript(messages)\nmarker = {\"role\": \"user\", \"content\":\n f\"[{tail_start - head_end} messages archived at {transcript}]\"}\nmessages = [*messages[:head_end], marker, *messages[tail_start:]]\n```\n\n切点需要保护 `assistant(tool_use)` 和 `user(tool_result)` 的配对关系。孤立的工具结果缺少对应调用,下一次 API 请求会被判定为无效。\n\n这一步控制消息数量,但保留下来的旧消息仍可能包含很长的工具结果。\n\n\n## 第三步:micro_compact\n\n`micro_compact` 会完整保留最近一次 assistant 响应之后新增的所有 `tool_result`,确保模型至少完整读取每条新结果一次。对于模型已经读取过的结果,它保留最近 3 条,并缩短其余超过 120 个字符的旧结果。已经转存的结果保留文件路径,其他结果只留下占位符:\n\n\n\n```python\nunseen = self.unseen_tool_result_positions(messages)\nconsumed = [entry for entry in results if entry[:2] not in unseen]\n\nfor _, _, block in consumed[:-self.KEEP_RECENT_RESULTS]:\n content = str(block.get(\"content\", \"\"))\n if len(content) <= 120:\n continue\n saved_path = next(\n (line.removeprefix(\"Full output: \") for line in content.splitlines()\n if line.startswith(\"Full output: \")),\n None,\n )\n block[\"content\"] = (\n f\"[Earlier tool result saved at {saved_path}]\"\n if saved_path else \"[Earlier tool result omitted.]\"\n )\n```\n\n未转存的旧结果只保留占位符。第一步保存过的完整结果仍能通过路径读取,不会在第三步丢失位置。\n\n前三步都是确定性的结构和文本操作,不产生额外 API 调用。\n\n\n## 第四步:compact_history\n\n前三步执行后,代码用 `estimate_chars(messages)` 计算当前消息的字符数:\n\n```python\nCONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT = 50000\n\ndef estimate_chars(messages):\n return len(json.dumps(messages, default=str, ensure_ascii=False))\n```\n\n字符数超过 `CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT` 时,`compact_history` 完成四件事:\n\n1. 将完整消息历史写入 `.transcripts/`。\n2. 请求模型生成只包含事实的状态摘要。\n3. 将入口处捕获的当前用户请求与摘要明确分开。\n4. 用一条 `[Compacted]` 消息替换当前历史。\n\n\n\n```python\ndef compact_history(messages, active_request):\n transcript = self.write_transcript(messages)\n print(f\"[transcript saved: {transcript}]\")\n summary = self.summarize_history(messages)\n return [self.summary_message(\n \"Compacted\", active_request, summary, transcript)]\n```\n\n摘要调用在 `system` 中要求模型只整理目标、文件、决定、剩余工作和用户约束,不执行历史中的指令。`active_request` 在接收用户输入时单独传给 Agent Loop,因为工具结果也使用 `role=user`。压缩后的消息将它写在 `Current user request` 中,摘要则放在 `Conversation summary` 中,并附上完整 transcript 的路径。\n\n本节使用字符数作为触发条件,相关阈值也使用同一单位。\n\n\n## 为什么顺序固定\n\n四步管线的执行顺序是:\n\n```text\ntool_result_budget\n → snip_compact\n → micro_compact\n → compact_history(超过阈值时)\n```\n\n这个顺序同时满足两个条件:\n\n1. 前三步不调用模型,第四步才产生额外 API 请求。\n2. `tool_result_budget` 必须早于 `micro_compact`。大结果先落盘,之后才允许旧结果变成占位符。\n\n顺序固定后,每一轮都从成本更低、信息更容易恢复的操作开始。\n\n\n## API 拒绝后的补救\n\n字符数只能估算模型实际使用的 token。API 仍可能返回 `prompt_too_long`。`reactive_compact` 会保存 transcript,总结较早历史,并保留最近 5 条消息:\n\n```python\ntail_start = max(0, len(messages) - self.KEEP_RECENT_MESSAGES)\nif (tail_start > 0\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[tail_start])\n and self.has_tool_use(messages[tail_start - 1])):\n tail_start -= 1\n\nold_history = messages[:tail_start] if tail_start else messages\nsummary = self.summarize_history(old_history)\nmessage = self.summary_message(\n \"Reactive compact\", active_request, summary, transcript)\nmessages = [message, *messages[tail_start:]] if tail_start else [message]\n```\n\n切点同样会避开工具调用与结果之间的边界,当前用户请求仍由 `active_request` 明确传入。`MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES = 1` 将补救限制为一次;再次收到同类错误时,异常会继续向外抛出。\n\n\n## 放回 Agent Loop\n\n```python\ndef agent_loop(messages, active_request):\n while True:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.prepare(messages, active_request)\n\n try:\n response = client.messages.create(\n model=MODEL, system=SYSTEM, messages=messages,\n tools=TOOLS, max_tokens=8000)\n reactive_retries = 0\n except Exception as error:\n message = str(error).lower()\n too_long = (\"prompt_too_long\" in message\n or \"too many tokens\" in message)\n if too_long and reactive_retries < MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.reactive_compact(\n messages, active_request)\n reactive_retries += 1\n continue\n raise\n```\n\n每次调用模型前都会经过同一条管线。CLI 在追加 `query` 后调用 `agent_loop(history, query)`,所以压缩多少次都不会丢失本轮请求。前三步处理后仍超过阈值,或者 API 明确拒绝上下文时,代码才会请求模型生成摘要。\n\n\n## compact 工具\n\n自动阈值只知道上下文有多大。模型还可以在一个阶段结束后主动调用 `compact`,表示后续工作只需要保留当前阶段的摘要:\n\n```python\n{\"name\": \"compact\",\n \"description\": \"Summarize earlier conversation to free context space.\"}\n```\n\n一次响应可以同时包含多个工具调用,例如先写文件再请求压缩。Harness 必须先执行完整批次,并为每个 `tool_use` 追加对应的 `tool_result`,然后再摘要这个已经闭合的回合:\n\n```python\ntool_calls = [\n block for block in response.content if block.type == \"tool_use\"\n]\nresults = []\ncompact_requested = False\n\nfor block in tool_calls:\n if block.name == \"compact\":\n output = \"Compaction requested after this tool batch.\"\n compact_requested = True\n else:\n output = execute_tool(block)\n results.append({\"type\": \"tool_result\", \"tool_use_id\": block.id,\n \"content\": output})\n\nmessages.append({\"role\": \"user\", \"content\": results})\n\nif compact_requested:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.compact_history(messages, active_request)\n```\n\n这样既不会留下孤立的工具结果,也不会在已经发生文件写入后丢失执行记录,导致模型重复同一个副作用。\n\n\n## 本节代码\n\n| 组件 | 共同执行骨架 | s08 新增 |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Agent Loop | 调用模型、执行工具、追加结果 | 每次调用模型前运行 `COMPACTOR.prepare()` |\n| Hooks | 权限检查、工具日志、结果处理 | 保持相同的工具执行入口 |\n| 上下文 | `messages` 持续追加 | 大结果转存、旧历史归档、摘要和一次错误补救 |\n| 工具 | 5 个基础工具 | 新增 `compact`,共 6 个 |\n\n> **与 s09 的边界:** s08 管理当前会话的有限上下文,压缩时允许舍弃可恢复的细节;s09 保存需要跨压缩、跨会话继续存在的信息。\n\n\n## 试一下\n\n```bash\ncd learn-claude-code\npython s08_context_compact/code.py\n```\n\n### 实验一:较早的结果被替换\n\n```text\n请读取 s01_agent_loop 到 s05_todo_write 五节课程的 README.md,\n比较它们的一级标题,并总结这些标题的命名规律。\n```\n\n任务会产生至少 5 条文件读取结果。每条新结果在模型首次读取前都会保持完整;后续轮次只保留最近 3 条已读取结果,更早且较长的结果会变成 `[Earlier tool result omitted.]`。已经转存的结果会保留保存路径。\n\n### 实验二:大结果转存\n\n```text\n请分析 web/src/data/generated/docs.json 的数据结构,\n并说明一条课程记录包含哪些主要字段。\n```\n\n文件内容超过单轮预算时,终端仍能完成任务,同时 `.task_outputs/tool-results/` 中会出现完整结果文件。\n\n### 实验三:自动摘要\n\n```text\n请比较 s08_context_compact/code.py 和 s09_memory/code.py,\n说明它们分别怎样管理当前上下文和持久记忆。\n```\n\n当读取结果使 `estimate_chars(messages)` 超过 50000 时,终端会打印 `[auto compact]` 和 transcript 路径。后续调用使用 `[Compacted]` 摘要继续完成比较。\n\n观察 `.transcripts/` 和 `.task_outputs/tool-results/`,可以分别看到历史留档与大结果转存。\n\n\n## 接下来\n\n上下文压缩让 Agent 可以在有限窗口中继续长任务。需要跨压缩、跨会话保留的信息,还要进入独立的持久记忆系统。\n\ns09 Memory 将实现记忆写入、检索与整理。\n\n\n"

1])):\n tail_start -= 1\n\ntranscript = self.write_transcript(messages)\nmarker = {\"role\": \"user\", \"content\":\n f\"[{tail_start - head_end} messages archived at {transcript}]\"}\nmessages = [*messages[:head_end], marker, *messages[tail_start:]]\n```\n\n切点需要保护 `assistant(tool_use)` 和 `user(tool_result)` 的配对关系。孤立的工具结果缺少对应调用,下一次 API 请求会被判定为无效。\n\n这一步控制消息数量,但保留下来的旧消息仍可能包含很长的工具结果。\n\n\n## 第三步:micro_compact\n\n前两步完成后,`prepare` 会估算剩余上下文的大小,只有超过 `CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT` 时才执行 `micro_compact`。`micro_compact` 会完整保留最近一次 assistant 响应之后新增的所有 `tool_result`,确保模型至少完整读取每条新结果一次。对于模型已经读取过的结果,它保留最近 3 条,并缩短其余超过 120 个字符的旧结果。已经转存的结果保留文件路径,其他结果只留下占位符:\n\n\n\n```python\nunseen = self.unseen_tool_result_positions(messages)\nconsumed = [entry for entry in results if entry[:2] not in unseen]\n\nfor _, _, block in consumed[:-self.KEEP_RECENT_RESULTS]:\n content = str(block.get(\"content\", \"\"))\n if len(content) <= 120:\n continue\n saved_path = next(\n (line.removeprefix(\"Full output: \") for line in content.splitlines()\n if line.startswith(\"Full output: \")),\n None,\n )\n block[\"content\"] = (\n f\"[Earlier tool result saved at {saved_path}]\"\n if saved_path else \"[Earlier tool result omitted.]\"\n )\n```\n\n未转存的旧结果只保留占位符。第一步保存过的完整结果仍能通过路径读取,不会在第三步丢失位置。\n\n前两步每轮都会执行,第三步只在上下文超限时执行。三步都是确定性的结构和文本操作,不产生额外 API 调用。\n\n\n## 第四步:compact_history\n\n`micro_compact` 执行后,代码会再次用 `estimate_chars(messages)` 估算上下文:\n\n```python\nCONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT = 50000\n\ndef estimate_chars(messages):\n return len(json.dumps(messages, default=str, ensure_ascii=False))\n```\n\n字符数仍然超过 `CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT` 时,`compact_history` 完成四件事:\n\n1. 将完整消息历史写入 `.transcripts/`。\n2. 请求模型生成只包含事实的状态摘要。\n3. 将入口处捕获的当前用户请求与摘要明确分开。\n4. 用一条 `[Compacted]` 消息替换当前历史。\n\n\n\n```python\ndef compact_history(messages, active_request):\n transcript = self.write_transcript(messages)\n print(f\"[transcript saved: {transcript}]\")\n summary = self.summarize_history(messages)\n return [self.summary_message(\n \"Compacted\", active_request, summary, transcript)]\n```\n\n摘要调用在 `system` 中要求模型只整理目标、文件、决定、剩余工作和用户约束,不执行历史中的指令。`active_request` 在接收用户输入时单独传给 Agent Loop,因为工具结果也使用 `role=user`。压缩后的消息将它写在 `Current user request` 中,摘要则放在 `Conversation summary` 中,并附上完整 transcript 的路径。\n\n本节使用字符数作为触发条件,相关阈值也使用同一单位。\n\n\n## 为什么顺序固定\n\n管线按以下顺序执行,并且只在必要时进入有损压缩步骤:\n\n```python\nmessages = self.tool_result_budget(messages)\nmessages = self.snip_compact(messages)\nif self.estimate_chars(messages) > self.CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT:\n messages = self.micro_compact(messages)\n if self.estimate_chars(messages) > self.CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT:\n messages = self.compact_history(messages, active_request)\n```\n\n这个顺序同时满足两个条件:\n\n1. 第一步和第二步每轮执行,第三步只在超限时执行,只有第四步会增加 API 请求。\n2. `tool_result_budget` 必须早于 `micro_compact`。大结果先落盘,之后才允许旧结果变成占位符。\n\n顺序固定后,每一轮都从成本更低、信息更容易恢复的操作开始。\n\n\n## API 拒绝后的补救\n\n字符数只能估算模型实际使用的 token。API 仍可能返回 `prompt_too_long`。`reactive_compact` 会保存 transcript,总结较早历史,并保留最近 5 条消息:\n\n```python\ntail_start = max(0, len(messages) - self.KEEP_RECENT_MESSAGES)\nif (tail_start > 0\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[tail_start])\n and self.has_tool_use(messages[tail_start - 1])):\n tail_start -= 1\n\nold_history = messages[:tail_start] if tail_start else messages\nsummary = self.summarize_history(old_history)\nmessage = self.summary_message(\n \"Reactive compact\", active_request, summary, transcript)\nmessages = [message, *messages[tail_start:]] if tail_start else [message]\n```\n\n切点同样会避开工具调用与结果之间的边界,当前用户请求仍由 `active_request` 明确传入。`MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES = 1` 将补救限制为一次;再次收到同类错误时,异常会继续向外抛出。\n\n\n## 放回 Agent Loop\n\n```python\ndef agent_loop(messages, active_request):\n while True:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.prepare(messages, active_request)\n\n try:\n response = client.messages.create(\n model=MODEL, system=SYSTEM, messages=messages,\n tools=TOOLS, max_tokens=8000)\n reactive_retries = 0\n except Exception as error:\n message = str(error).lower()\n too_long = (\"prompt_too_long\" in message\n or \"too many tokens\" in message)\n if too_long and reactive_retries < MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.reactive_compact(\n messages, active_request)\n reactive_retries += 1\n continue\n raise\n```\n\n每次调用模型前都会经过同一条管线。CLI 在追加 `query` 后调用 `agent_loop(history, query)`,所以压缩多少次都不会丢失本轮请求。只有 `micro_compact` 处理后仍超过阈值,或者 API 明确拒绝上下文时,代码才会请求模型生成摘要。\n\n\n## compact 工具\n\n自动阈值只知道上下文有多大。模型还可以在一个阶段结束后主动调用 `compact`,表示后续工作只需要保留当前阶段的摘要:\n\n```python\n{\"name\": \"compact\",\n \"description\": \"Summarize earlier conversation to free context space.\"}\n```\n\n一次响应可以同时包含多个工具调用,例如先写文件再请求压缩。Harness 必须先执行完整批次,并为每个 `tool_use` 追加对应的 `tool_result`,然后再摘要这个已经闭合的回合:\n\n```python\ntool_calls = [\n block for block in response.content if block.type == \"tool_use\"\n]\nresults = []\ncompact_requested = False\n\nfor block in tool_calls:\n if block.name == \"compact\":\n output = \"Compaction requested after this tool batch.\"\n compact_requested = True\n else:\n output = execute_tool(block)\n results.append({\"type\": \"tool_result\", \"tool_use_id\": block.id,\n \"content\": output})\n\nmessages.append({\"role\": \"user\", \"content\": results})\n\nif compact_requested:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.compact_history(messages, active_request)\n```\n\n这样既不会留下孤立的工具结果,也不会在已经发生文件写入后丢失执行记录,导致模型重复同一个副作用。\n\n\n## 本节代码\n\n| 组件 | 共同执行骨架 | s08 新增 |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Agent Loop | 调用模型、执行工具、追加结果 | 每次调用模型前运行 `COMPACTOR.prepare()` |\n| Hooks | 权限检查、工具日志、结果处理 | 保持相同的工具执行入口 |\n| 上下文 | `messages` 持续追加 | 大结果转存、旧历史归档、摘要和一次错误补救 |\n| 工具 | 5 个基础工具 | 新增 `compact`,共 6 个 |\n\n> **与 s09 的边界:** s08 管理当前会话的有限上下文,压缩时允许舍弃可恢复的细节;s09 保存需要跨压缩、跨会话继续存在的信息。\n\n\n## 试一下\n\n```bash\ncd learn-claude-code\npython s08_context_compact/code.py\n```\n\n### 实验一:较早的结果被替换\n\n```text\n请读取 s01_agent_loop 到 s05_todo_write 五节课程的 README.md,\n比较它们的一级标题,并总结这些标题的命名规律。\n```\n\n任务会产生至少 5 条文件读取结果。每条新结果在模型首次读取前都会保持完整;后续轮次只保留最近 3 条已读取结果,更早且较长的结果会变成 `[Earlier tool result omitted.]`。已经转存的结果会保留保存路径。\n\n### 实验二:大结果转存\n\n```text\n请分析 web/src/data/generated/docs.json 的数据结构,\n并说明一条课程记录包含哪些主要字段。\n```\n\n文件内容超过单轮预算时,终端仍能完成任务,同时 `.task_outputs/tool-results/` 中会出现完整结果文件。\n\n### 实验三:自动摘要\n\n```text\n请比较 s08_context_compact/code.py 和 s09_memory/code.py,\n说明它们分别怎样管理当前上下文和持久记忆。\n```\n\n当读取结果使 `estimate_chars(messages)` 超过 50000 时,终端会打印 `[auto compact]` 和 transcript 路径。后续调用使用 `[Compacted]` 摘要继续完成比较。\n\n观察 `.transcripts/` 和 `.task_outputs/tool-results/`,可以分别看到历史留档与大结果转存。\n\n\n## 接下来\n\n上下文压缩让 Agent 可以在有限窗口中继续长任务。需要跨压缩、跨会话保留的信息,还要进入独立的持久记忆系统。\n\ns09 Memory 将实现记忆写入、检索与整理。\n\n\n"

(max_messages - head_end)\n\nif self.has_tool_use(messages[head_end - 1]):\n while (head_end < tail_start\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[head_end])):\n head_end += 1\n\nif (tail_start > 0\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[tail_start])\n and self.has_tool_use(messages[tail_start -

self.KEEP_RECENT_MESSAGES)\nif (tail_start > 0\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[tail_start])\n and self.has_tool_use(messages[tail_start - 1])):\n tail_start -= 1\n\nold_history = messages[:tail_start] if tail_start else messages\nsummary = self.summarize_history(old_history)\nmessage = self.summary_message(\n \"Reactive compact\", active_request, summary, transcript)\nmessages = [message, *messages[tail_start:]] if tail_start else [message]\n```\n\nこの切断位置でもツール呼び出しと結果の組を分割せず、現在のユーザー要求は `active_request` で明示的に渡されます。`MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES = 1` により、回復処理は 1 回だけ許可されます。もう一度コンテキスト長のエラーを受けた場合は、例外を呼び出し元へ返します。\n\n\n## Agent Loop に組み込む\n\n```python\ndef agent_loop(messages, active_request):\n while True:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.prepare(messages, active_request)\n\n try:\n response = client.messages.create(\n model=MODEL, system=SYSTEM, messages=messages,\n tools=TOOLS, max_tokens=8000)\n reactive_retries = 0\n except Exception as error:\n message = str(error).lower()\n too_long = (\"prompt_too_long\" in message\n or \"too many tokens\" in message)\n if too_long and reactive_retries < MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.reactive_compact(\n messages, active_request)\n reactive_retries += 1\n continue\n raise\n```\n\nすべてのモデル呼び出しが同じパイプラインを通ります。CLI は `query` を追加した後に `agent_loop(history, query)` を呼ぶため、圧縮を繰り返しても現在の要求は失われません。最初の 3 ステップ後も上限を超える場合、または API が拒否した場合にだけ、コードはモデルへ要約を依頼します。\n\n\n## compact ツール\n\n自動しきい値が判断できるのは、コンテキストの大きさだけです。ある段階を終え、次の段階に要約だけを引き継げばよいとモデルが判断したとき、`compact` を呼び出せます。\n\n```python\n{\"name\": \"compact\",\n \"description\": \"Summarize earlier conversation to free context space.\"}\n```\n\n1 回の応答には、ファイル書き込みと圧縮のように複数のツール呼び出しが含まれることがあります。Harness はまず一括処理をすべて実行し、各 `tool_use` に対応する `tool_result` を追加します。そのターンが完結してから要約します。\n\n```python\ntool_calls = [\n block for block in response.content if block.type == \"tool_use\"\n]\nresults = []\ncompact_requested = False\n\nfor block in tool_calls:\n if block.name == \"compact\":\n output = \"Compaction requested after this tool batch.\"\n compact_requested = True\n else:\n output = execute_tool(block)\n results.append({\"type\": \"tool_result\", \"tool_use_id\": block.id,\n \"content\": output})\n\nmessages.append({\"role\": \"user\", \"content\": results})\n\nif compact_requested:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.compact_history(messages, active_request)\n```\n\nこれにより孤立したツール結果が残りません。また、圧縮前に実行したファイル書き込みなどの記録も保持されるため、モデルが同じ副作用を繰り返すことを防げます。\n\n\n## このレッスンで追加するもの\n\n| コンポーネント | 共通の実行ループ | s08 で追加 |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Agent Loop | モデルを呼び出し、ツールを実行し、結果を追加 | 各モデル呼び出しの前に `COMPACTOR.prepare()` を実行 |\n| Hooks | 権限確認、ツールログ、結果処理 | 同じツール実行入口を維持 |\n| コンテキスト | `messages` に追加 | 大きな結果の保存、古い履歴のアーカイブ、要約、長さエラー後の 1 回の再試行 |\n| ツール | 5 個の基本ツール | `compact` を追加し、合計 6 個 |\n\n> **s09 との境界:** s08 は現在のセッションにある有限のコンテキストを管理し、再取得できる詳細を圧縮できます。s09 は、圧縮後や次のセッションにも残す情報を保存します。\n\n\n## 試してみる\n\n```bash\ncd learn-claude-code\npython s08_context_compact/code.py\n```\n\n### 実験 1:古い結果を置き換える\n\n```text\ns01_agent_loop から s05_todo_write までの README.md を読み、\n各ファイルの最上位見出しを比較して、命名の規則をまとめてください。\n```\n\nこのタスクでは少なくとも 5 件のファイル結果が生成されます。各新規結果はモデルが初めて読むまで完全に保持されます。以降のターンでは、すでに読まれた最新 3 件を残し、それより前の長い結果は `[Earlier tool result omitted.]` に変わります。保存済みの結果には保存先のパスが残ります。\n\n### 実験 2:大きな結果を保存する\n\n```text\nweb/src/data/generated/docs.json のデータ構造を調べ、\n1 件のレッスン記録に含まれる主なフィールドを説明してください。\n```\n\nファイルが 1 ラウンドの予算を超える場合でもタスクは続行でき、完全な結果が `.task_outputs/tool-results/` に保存されます。\n\n### 実験 3:自動要約を発火させる\n\n```text\ns08_context_compact/code.py と s09_memory/code.py を比較し、\n現在のコンテキストと永続メモリの管理方法を説明してください。\n```\n\nファイル結果によって `estimate_chars(messages)` が 50000 を超えると、ターミナルに `[auto compact]` と transcript のパスが表示されます。次の呼び出しは `[Compacted]` の要約から続行します。\n\n`.transcripts/` と `.task_outputs/tool-results/` を確認すると、履歴の保存と大きな結果の転送をそれぞれ観察できます。\n\n\n## 次へ\n\nコンテキスト圧縮により、Agent は限られたウィンドウでも長いタスクを続けられます。圧縮後や次のセッションにも残す情報には、独立した永続メモリが必要です。\n\ns09 Memory では、メモリの書き込み、検索、整理を実装します。\n\n\n"

(max_messages - head_end)\n\nif self.has_tool_use(messages[head_end - 1]):\n while (head_end < tail_start\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[head_end])):\n head_end += 1\n\nif (tail_start > 0\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[tail_start])\n and self.has_tool_use(messages[tail_start - 1])):\n tail_start -= 1\n\ntranscript = self.write_transcript(messages)\nmarker = {\"role\": \"user\", \"content\":\n f\"[{tail_start - head_end} messages archived at {transcript}]\"}\nmessages = [*messages[:head_end], marker, *messages[tail_start:]]\n```\n\n切断位置では、`assistant(tool_use)` と `user(tool_result)` の組を保護します。対応するツール呼び出しがない孤立した結果を含むと、次の API リクエストは無効になります。\n\nこのステップはメッセージ数を抑えます。保持されたメッセージ内のツール結果は、まだ長い可能性があります。\n\n\n## ステップ 3:micro_compact\n\n最初の 2 ステップの後、`prepare` は残りのコンテキストサイズを推定し、`CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT` を超えている場合にだけ `micro_compact` を実行します。`micro_compact` は直近の assistant 応答より後に追加されたすべての `tool_result` を完全に保持し、モデルが各結果を少なくとも 1 回は完全な形で読めるようにします。モデルがすでに読んだ結果については最新 3 件を残し、それより古く 120 文字を超える結果を短くします。保存済みの結果にはファイルパスを残し、それ以外はプレースホルダーに置き換えます。\n\n\n\n```python\nunseen = self.unseen_tool_result_positions(messages)\nconsumed = [entry for entry in results if entry[:2] not in unseen]\n\nfor _, _, block in consumed[:-self.KEEP_RECENT_RESULTS]:\n content = str(block.get(\"content\", \"\"))\n if len(content) <= 120:\n continue\n saved_path = next(\n (line.removeprefix(\"Full output: \") for line in content.splitlines()\n if line.startswith(\"Full output: \")),\n None,\n )\n block[\"content\"] = (\n f\"[Earlier tool result saved at {saved_path}]\"\n if saved_path else \"[Earlier tool result omitted.]\"\n )\n```\n\n保存していない古い結果にはプレースホルダーだけが残ります。ステップ 1 で保存した結果には、完全な出力を読み直すためのパスが残ります。\n\n最初の 2 ステップは毎ラウンド実行され、ステップ 3 はコンテキストが上限を超えた場合にだけ実行されます。3 ステップとも決定的なテキスト処理と構造操作であり、追加の API 呼び出しは発生しません。\n\n\n## ステップ 4:compact_history\n\n`micro_compact` の後、コードは `estimate_chars(messages)` でコンテキストを再び推定します。\n\n```python\nCONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT = 50000\n\ndef estimate_chars(messages):\n return len(json.dumps(messages, default=str, ensure_ascii=False))\n```\n\n文字数がまだ `CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT` を超えている場合、`compact_history` は 4 つの処理を行います。\n\n1. 完全なメッセージ履歴を `.transcripts/` に書き込みます。\n2. モデルに事実だけの状態要約を依頼します。\n3. 入力時に取得した現在の要求を要約と明確に分けます。\n4. 現在の履歴を 1 件の `[Compacted]` メッセージに置き換えます。\n\n\n\n```python\ndef compact_history(messages, active_request):\n transcript = self.write_transcript(messages)\n print(f\"[transcript saved: {transcript}]\")\n summary = self.summarize_history(messages)\n return [self.summary_message(\n \"Compacted\", active_request, summary, transcript)]\n```\n\n要約呼び出しは、履歴内の指示を実行せず、目標、ファイル、判断、残作業、ユーザー制約を整理するようモデルに求めます。ツール結果も `role=user` を使うため、CLI は `active_request` を Agent Loop に直接渡します。圧縮後のメッセージでは、現在の要求を `Current user request`、要約を `Conversation summary` に分け、完全な transcript のパスも残します。\n\nこのレッスンでは文字数を発火条件として使い、関連するしきい値も同じ単位で扱います。\n\n\n## 順序を固定する理由\n\nパイプラインは次の順序で処理し、必要な場合にだけ情報を失う圧縮へ進みます。\n\n```python\nmessages = self.tool_result_budget(messages)\nmessages = self.snip_compact(messages)\nif self.estimate_chars(messages) > self.CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT:\n messages = self.micro_compact(messages)\n if self.estimate_chars(messages) > self.CONTEXT_CHAR_LIMIT:\n messages = self.compact_history(messages, active_request)\n```\n\nこの順序には 2 つの条件があります。\n\n1. ステップ 1 と 2 は毎ラウンド実行され、ステップ 3 は上限を超えた場合だけ実行されます。API リクエストを追加するのはステップ 4 だけです。\n2. `tool_result_budget` は `micro_compact` より先に動く必要があります。古い結果をプレースホルダーにする前に、大きな結果をディスクへ保存します。\n\n各ラウンドは、コストが低く情報を再取得しやすい処理から始まります。\n\n\n## API に拒否された後の回復\n\n文字数はモデルが使う token 数の推定値です。そのため API が `prompt_too_long` を返す可能性は残ります。`reactive_compact` は transcript を保存し、古い履歴を要約して、最新 5 メッセージを保持します。\n\n```python\ntail_start = max(0, len(messages) - self.KEEP_RECENT_MESSAGES)\nif (tail_start > 0\n and self.is_tool_result(messages[tail_start])\n and self.has_tool_use(messages[tail_start - 1])):\n tail_start -= 1\n\nold_history = messages[:tail_start] if tail_start else messages\nsummary = self.summarize_history(old_history)\nmessage = self.summary_message(\n \"Reactive compact\", active_request, summary, transcript)\nmessages = [message, *messages[tail_start:]] if tail_start else [message]\n```\n\nこの切断位置でもツール呼び出しと結果の組を分割せず、現在のユーザー要求は `active_request` で明示的に渡されます。`MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES = 1` により、回復処理は 1 回だけ許可されます。もう一度コンテキスト長のエラーを受けた場合は、例外を呼び出し元へ返します。\n\n\n## Agent Loop に組み込む\n\n```python\ndef agent_loop(messages, active_request):\n while True:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.prepare(messages, active_request)\n\n try:\n response = client.messages.create(\n model=MODEL, system=SYSTEM, messages=messages,\n tools=TOOLS, max_tokens=8000)\n reactive_retries = 0\n except Exception as error:\n message = str(error).lower()\n too_long = (\"prompt_too_long\" in message\n or \"too many tokens\" in message)\n if too_long and reactive_retries < MAX_REACTIVE_RETRIES:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.reactive_compact(\n messages, active_request)\n reactive_retries += 1\n continue\n raise\n```\n\nすべてのモデル呼び出しが同じパイプラインを通ります。CLI は `query` を追加した後に `agent_loop(history, query)` を呼ぶため、圧縮を繰り返しても現在の要求は失われません。`micro_compact` の後も上限を超える場合、または API が拒否した場合にだけ、コードはモデルへ要約を依頼します。\n\n\n## compact ツール\n\n自動しきい値が判断できるのは、コンテキストの大きさだけです。ある段階を終え、次の段階に要約だけを引き継げばよいとモデルが判断したとき、`compact` を呼び出せます。\n\n```python\n{\"name\": \"compact\",\n \"description\": \"Summarize earlier conversation to free context space.\"}\n```\n\n1 回の応答には、ファイル書き込みと圧縮のように複数のツール呼び出しが含まれることがあります。Harness はまず一括処理をすべて実行し、各 `tool_use` に対応する `tool_result` を追加します。そのターンが完結してから要約します。\n\n```python\ntool_calls = [\n block for block in response.content if block.type == \"tool_use\"\n]\nresults = []\ncompact_requested = False\n\nfor block in tool_calls:\n if block.name == \"compact\":\n output = \"Compaction requested after this tool batch.\"\n compact_requested = True\n else:\n output = execute_tool(block)\n results.append({\"type\": \"tool_result\", \"tool_use_id\": block.id,\n \"content\": output})\n\nmessages.append({\"role\": \"user\", \"content\": results})\n\nif compact_requested:\n messages[:] = COMPACTOR.compact_history(messages, active_request)\n```\n\nこれにより孤立したツール結果が残りません。また、圧縮前に実行したファイル書き込みなどの記録も保持されるため、モデルが同じ副作用を繰り返すことを防げます。\n\n\n## このレッスンで追加するもの\n\n| コンポーネント | 共通の実行ループ | s08 で追加 |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Agent Loop | モデルを呼び出し、ツールを実行し、結果を追加 | 各モデル呼び出しの前に `COMPACTOR.prepare()` を実行 |\n| Hooks | 権限確認、ツールログ、結果処理 | 同じツール実行入口を維持 |\n| コンテキスト | `messages` に追加 | 大きな結果の保存、古い履歴のアーカイブ、要約、長さエラー後の 1 回の再試行 |\n| ツール | 5 個の基本ツール | `compact` を追加し、合計 6 個 |\n\n> **s09 との境界:** s08 は現在のセッションにある有限のコンテキストを管理し、再取得できる詳細を圧縮できます。s09 は、圧縮後や次のセッションにも残す情報を保存します。\n\n\n## 試してみる\n\n```bash\ncd learn-claude-code\npython s08_context_compact/code.py\n```\n\n### 実験 1:古い結果を置き換える\n\n```text\ns01_agent_loop から s05_todo_write までの README.md を読み、\n各ファイルの最上位見出しを比較して、命名の規則をまとめてください。\n```\n\nこのタスクでは少なくとも 5 件のファイル結果が生成されます。各新規結果はモデルが初めて読むまで完全に保持されます。以降のターンでは、すでに読まれた最新 3 件を残し、それより前の長い結果は `[Earlier tool result omitted.]` に変わります。保存済みの結果には保存先のパスが残ります。\n\n### 実験 2:大きな結果を保存する\n\n```text\nweb/src/data/generated/docs.json のデータ構造を調べ、\n1 件のレッスン記録に含まれる主なフィールドを説明してください。\n```\n\nファイルが 1 ラウンドの予算を超える場合でもタスクは続行でき、完全な結果が `.task_outputs/tool-results/` に保存されます。\n\n### 実験 3:自動要約を発火させる\n\n```text\ns08_context_compact/code.py と s09_memory/code.py を比較し、\n現在のコンテキストと永続メモリの管理方法を説明してください。\n```\n\nファイル結果によって `estimate_chars(messages)` が 50000 を超えると、ターミナルに `[auto compact]` と transcript のパスが表示されます。次の呼び出しは `[Compacted]` の要約から続行します。\n\n`.transcripts/` と `.task_outputs/tool-results/` を確認すると、履歴の保存と大きな結果の転送をそれぞれ観察できます。\n\n\n## 次へ\n\nコンテキスト圧縮により、Agent は限られたウィンドウでも長いタスクを続けられます。圧縮後や次のセッションにも残す情報には、独立した永続メモリが必要です。\n\ns09 Memory では、メモリの書き込み、検索、整理を実装します。\n\n\n"
