Reduces friction during long Claude workflows by prompting users to run /compact at logical milestones to preserve context.
Use the strategic-compact hook to start monitoring tool usage and prompt /compact when the threshold is reached.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
To preserve context in long Claude sessions, you can prompt strategic compaction at logical milestones. This skill tracks tool call counts and prompts /compact before transitions when usage accumulates.
You should run /compact during complex editing workflows at a configurable threshold of 50 tool calls, with subsequent prompts every 25 calls. This provides regular checkpoints to maintain coherent context.
Session tracking for tool call counts works by using a temporary file to maintain state across interactions. A PreToolUse hook is wired to monitor usage and issue /compact prompts when the threshold is reached.
Yes, you can configure the compaction threshold, which defaults to 50 tool calls. The skill uses a COMPACT_THRESHOLD setting to determine when to prompt for /compact during your session.
No, strategic compaction does not require external dependencies. It implements a session-scoped counter stored in a temporary file and uses scripts to provide the PreToolUse hook functionality.
The best way to manage context loss during transitions from exploration to execution is prompting /compact at logical milestones. This reduces friction by preserving context as tool usage grows in complex tasks.
