compact/summary gains { model, maxTokens? } — the envelope the
summarize call actually used, reported by the backend that made the
call: summarize() now returns { summary, model, maxTokens? } instead of
bare blocks, so an overriding backend (template or remote summarizer)
reports its own envelope honestly and compactRegion logs it. 'Which
model wrote this summary' becomes answerable from the log alone, and
the one-shot summarize request — outside the loop's header-event fold
by design — is reconstructable from log + code (the reconstructability
RFC's scope statement).
compact/ — compaction capability family
A three-package capability seam (see capability seams): an abstract compaction interface, a backend that summarizes, and the model-facing tool that consumes it. The interface and a first backend (compact-basic/) exist; the consumer tool is deferred. All product packages.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
compact/ |
Abstract compaction seam (interface + compact/* events + CompactionResult) |
ctx.compact |
compact-basic/ |
A backend: chars-per-token estimation (charsPerToken, default 4) + token-budget retention + llm.stream() summarization |
(registers ctx.compact) |
tool-compact/ (deferred) |
Model-facing /compact tool over ctx.compact |
(registers on ctx.tools) |
The interface lives at compact/compact/, the backend at compact/compact-basic/. Unlike the bash seam, it depends on dsh-session and dsh-llm — its verbs are defined over a Session and its output is the ContentBlock vocabulary, so the contract cannot be expressed without naming them. That deviation from the "interface depends only on cordis" guidance is intentional and recorded in the compaction capability-seam RFC. A tokenizer- or template-based backend would replace compact-basic without touching the interface or the tool.
