Context Budget

${ARGS}

Keep

Preserve active goals, constraints, changed files, unresolved decisions, verification state, and user preferences.

Drop

Summarize repeated logs, dependency download noise, stale alternatives, and file contents already transformed into decisions.

Retrieve

Use symbol_search and targeted CLI reads (sed, grep, rg, git show) instead of rereading whole files. Reconstruct context from durable project artifacts when possible.

Handoff

Before compression or long transitions, write a concise brief with next action, blockers, and validation commands.
