context-mgmt SKILL.md skillA
context-mgmt from ariaxhan/kernel-claude is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add ariaxhan/kernel-claude/context-mgmt@git:20261029.de0dd17Pins git:20261029.de0dd17 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Context engineering: compaction, progressive disclosure, structured notes via AgentDB. Triggers: tokens, compaction, memory, handoff, summarize, context window.
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
<skill id="context-mgmt"> <purpose> Context is finite. Every token competes for attention. Longer context makes things WORSE (30%+ accuracy drop for middle info). Progressive disclosure: load what's needed when it's needed. **Reasoning fidelity is the real metric, not token count.** Quality degrades at ~60-70% fill, not at the limit. </purpose> <prerequisite> Monitor context usage. Compact or hand off proactively at ~60% capacity — not 80%, not at limit. Use native /context command to check usage. This skill is for methodology. </prerequisite> <reference> Skill-specific: skills/context-mgmt/reference/context-mgmt-research.md Architecture: _meta/research/context-graph-architecture.md Graph telemetry (shadow): JSON receipts → `agentdb graph-project` / `graph-suggest` (see orchestration/agentdb/graph-project.py). Canonical JSON manifests remain authoritative. </reference> <core_principles> 1. COMPACTION: Summarize and reinitialize. Keep architecture decisions, discard noise. 2. STRUCTURED NOTES: AgentDB + active.md persist across context resets. …

How to install
mdr add ariaxhan/kernel-claude/context-mgmt@sha256:e4fab492708a2830The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261029.de0dd17, 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.
