compact

A helper command that prepares a Claude Code conversation for manual context compaction, meaning shortening the conversation so work can continue within the available context. It tells you to run Claude Code's built-in `/compact` command.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before manually compacting a conversation, especially when you want to pass a specific note into the compaction.
Why use it?
It prevents confusion between OMC's helper and Claude Code's native compaction command while preserving any note you want included.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

compact scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

OMC Manual Context Compaction Helper

This command intentionally uses the plugin-scoped name /oh-my-claudecode:compact instead of the bare /compact command. Bare /compact is reserved for Claude Code's native compaction command and must not be shadowed by OMC.

OMC cannot invoke Claude Code's built-in /compact from a plugin command: /compact is a native slash command, not a prompt skill, and a prompt-skill call for compact is not a supported handoff. This helper is instruction-only and must not claim that OMC triggers compaction itself.

Dispatch

  1. Treat this as a request to prepare for manual Claude Code conversation compaction. Do not create a separate OMC summarizer and do not replace existing auto-compress behavior.
  2. Preserve any user note for the compaction request:
$ARGUMENTS
  1. Tell the user to run Claude Code's built-in bare /compact command directly. If the note above is non-empty, tell them to include it with /compact.
  2. Before handing off, remind the user that Claude Code's normal PreCompact lifecycle should run OMC's existing pre-compact hooks (pre-compact, project memory, and wiki preservation) when the native compaction occurs.
  3. Do not invoke a compact skill, do not attempt to call /compact on the user's behalf, and do not manually summarize the session.

User-facing handoff

Use this wording, adapting only the note text:

OMC prepared the compaction context, but plugin commands cannot trigger Claude Code's native /compact directly. Run this as a bare Claude Code command now:

/compact $ARGUMENTS

Bare /compact remains Claude Code's native command; OMC does not shadow or invoke it.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

compact is a command published in the GitHub repository Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-claudecode (38,897 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 410 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
