strategic-compact from naimkatiman/continuous-improvement is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Enforces Law 5 (Reflect After Every Session) of the 7 Laws of AI Agent Discipline at phase boundaries. Suggests manual context compaction at logical intervals to preserve context through task phases rather than arbitrary auto-compaction.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Strategic Compact Skill Suggests manual `/compact` at strategic points in your workflow rather than relying on arbitrary auto-compaction. ## When to Activate - Running long sessions that approach context limits (200K+ tokens) - Working on multi-phase tasks (research → plan → implement → test) - Switching between unrelated tasks within the same session - After completing a major milestone and starting new work - When responses slow down or become less coherent (context pressure) ## Why Strategic Compaction? Auto-compaction triggers at arbitrary points: - Often mid-task, losing important context - No awareness of logical task boundaries - Can interrupt complex multi-step operations Strategic compaction at logical boundaries: - **After exploration, before execution** — Compact research context, keep implementation plan - **After completing a milestone** — Fresh start for next phase - **Before major context shifts** — Clear exploration context before different task ## How It Works This skill is a manual phase-boundary checklist, not a bundled runtime hook. Use it when planning or reviewing a long session: …

How to install
mdr add naimkatiman/continuous-improvement/strategic-compact@sha256:4c939a8644ca16bfThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260622.7730e5c, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
