capsule-compact

capsule-compact is a skill for Claude Code from wrg32786/aigent-os. It costs 42 tokens per session (464 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A manual tool for shortening a long chain of stored session capsules by combining its oldest entries into a summary capsule. Capsules are saved records of session context and decisions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to compact long capsule chains, preserve active threads and decisions, and make later session reopening faster.
Why use it?
It reduces the amount of older context that must be followed while keeping the original records for reference.

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

capsule-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 5d ago.

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

/capsule-compact

Run python3 daemons/capsule-compact.py <head_capsule_id> from the vault root.

The script:

  1. Walks parent_capsule_id chain backward from the head
  2. If chain length >= 5, summarizes the oldest 3 capsules into a single chain-summary-<head>-<date>.md capsule
  3. Updates pointers: boundary capsule's parent → summary; summary's parent → original chain root's parent
  4. Marks each compacted capsule with compacted_into: <summary_id> (they stay on disk for archeology)

When to run

  • /close Step 0.5 PART E (v0.4.5) emits [CADDY:context] CHAIN — capsule chain length N when threshold hit
  • Manually before a session-heavy week to keep /open Step 2.5 fast
  • After narrative-reconstruction archeology when the chain has grown unwieldy

Defaults

  • Threshold: 5 capsules
  • Summarize-count: 3 oldest

Override via --threshold N and --summarize-count N flags.

What it does NOT do

  • Does not auto-compact at /close. Hints, you decide.
  • Does not delete compacted capsules. Each gets compacted_into: marker.
  • Does not LLM-summarize. Concatenates structured fields (objective, open_threads still live, held decisions).
  • Does not walk forks. parent_capsule_id is strictly linear.
  • [[concepts/Somatic v0.4.5 Chain Compaction]] — spec
  • [[concepts/context-capsule]] — base capsule schema
Changes

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.
