</codex_runtime_notes>STATE.md is the project's living memory — it accumulates decisions, insights, and context over the course of a research project. When it exceeds ~150 lines, older entries should be archived to keep the active context window efficient while preserving the full historical record.
Routes to the compact-state workflow which handles:
<execution_context>
Archive historical entries from STATE.md to reduce its size. As research projects grow, STATE.md accumulates decisions, session records, metrics, and resolved blockers from many phases. This workflow archives old entries to STATE-ARCHIVE.md, keeping STATE.md lean and under the target line budget.Triggered automatically when progress.md detects STATE.md exceeds 1500 lines, or manually via $gpd-compact-state.
<required_reading> Read all files referenced by the invoking prompt's execution_context before starting.
Read these files using the read_file tool:
INIT=$(/Users/charlie/.gpd/venv/bin/python -m gpd.runtime_cli --runtime codex --config-dir ./.codex --install-scope local init progress --include state)
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
echo "ERROR: gpd initialization failed: $INIT"
# STOP — display the error to the user and do not proceed.
fi
Extract: state_exists, state_content.
If state_exists is false:
No STATE.md found. Nothing to compact.
Exit.
Count current lines:
STATE_LINES=$(wc -l < .gpd/STATE.md)
Report: "STATE.md is {STATE_LINES} lines."
Check thresholds:
If under 1500 and not forced (--force flag absent): offer to compact anyway or exit.
The gpd CLI handles the detailed archival logic:
RESULT=$(/Users/charlie/.gpd/venv/bin/python -m gpd.runtime_cli --runtime codex --config-dir ./.codex --install-scope local state compact)
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
echo "ERROR: state compact failed: $RESULT"
# STOP — STATE.md may be in an inconsistent state.
fi
Parse result JSON for: compacted (bool), reason, original_lines, new_lines, archived_lines, warn.
The tool performs these archival operations:
[resolved] or struck through (~~...~~). Keeps active blockers.All archived content is appended to .gpd/STATE-ARCHIVE.md with a dated header.
If compacted is false:
Check reason:
"within_budget": STATE.md is already small enough."nothing_to_archive": STATE.md is large but nothing qualified for archival (all entries are current).Report and exit.
**Verify the compacted STATE.md is valid:**# Check new line count
NEW_LINES=$(wc -l < .gpd/STATE.md)
# Verify STATE.md still has required sections
for SECTION in "Current Position" "Project Reference" "Accumulated Context" "Session"; do
grep -q "## ${SECTION}" .gpd/STATE.md || echo "MISSING: ${SECTION}"
done
# Verify state.json was synced
ls -la .gpd/state.json
If required sections are missing: The compaction was too aggressive. Attempt recovery:
# First try: regenerate STATE.md directly from authoritative state.json
if [ -f .gpd/state.json ]; then
echo "Attempting STATE.md recovery from state.json..."
uv run python - <<'PY'
import json
from pathlib import Path
from gpd.core.state import save_state_json
cwd = Path(".")
state = json.loads((cwd / ".gpd" / "state.json").read_text(encoding="utf-8"))
save_state_json(cwd, state)
PY
RECOVERY_METHOD="regenerated from authoritative state.json"
else
# Fallback: restore from git (state.json also missing or corrupt)
echo "state.json unavailable. Falling back to git restore..."
git checkout -- .gpd/STATE.md
RECOVERY_METHOD="restored from git"
fi
echo "Recovery method: ${RECOVERY_METHOD}"
Report error and recovery method used, then exit.
If state.json sync failed: Do not delete it blindly. Keep .gpd/state.json (and .gpd/state.json.bak if present), inspect gpd state validate, and use $gpd-sync-state or the recovery step above so JSON-only fields are preserved.
ls -la .gpd/STATE-ARCHIVE.md 2>/dev/null
ARCHIVE_LINES=$(wc -l < .gpd/STATE-ARCHIVE.md 2>/dev/null || echo 0)
Confirm archived content is recoverable.

**Before:** {original_lines} lines

**Archived:** {archived_lines} lines to STATE-ARCHIVE.md
### What was archived:
- {N} decisions from phases < {keep_phase_min}
- {N} resolved blockers
- {N} performance metrics from old phases
- {N} historical session records
### Archive location:
.gpd/STATE-ARCHIVE.md ({archive_lines} total lines)
All archived content is recoverable from STATE-ARCHIVE.md or git history.
If STATE.md is still above 150 lines after compaction:
STATE.md is now {new_lines} lines (target: 150).
Remaining entries are all current-phase content. To further reduce:
- Summarize verbose intermediate results
- Move detailed derivation logs to phase SUMMARY.md files
- Keep only the latest key results, not historical progression

@.gpd/STATE.md **Follow the compact-state workflow** from `@./.codex/get-physics-done/workflows/compact-state.md`.If --force flag is present, skip the line-count check and compact regardless of current size.
The workflow handles all logic including:
