compact-guard skillA
compact-guard is agent-read markdown (skill) from rohitg00/pro-workflow: Smart context compaction with state preservation. Saves critical files, task progress, and working state before compaction, restores after. Use before manual compact or when auto-compact triggers..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Compact Guard Protect important context through compaction cycles. Based on Claude Code internals: compaction restores max 5 files with 5K tokens each, within a 50K total budget. ## Trigger Use before `/compact` or when auto-compact warning appears. ## Key Constants (from Claude Code source) - `POST_COMPACT_MAX_FILES_TO_RESTORE = 5` — only 5 files survive - `POST_COMPACT_TOKEN_BUDGET = 50K` — total restore budget - `POST_COMPACT_MAX_TOKENS_PER_FILE = 5K` — per-file limit - Auto-compact fires at `context_window - 13K` buffer ## Pre-Compact Checklist Before compacting, save these to memory or a scratch file: 1. **Current task** — What are you working on? One sentence. 2. **Files in progress** — Which files are being edited? (max 5 — compaction only restores 5) 3. **Decisions made** — Any architectural choices made this session 4. **Blockers** — What's preventing progress? 5. **Next steps** — What to do immediately after compact ## Strategy: Microcompact First Before full compaction, try microcompact: - Large tool results (test output, grep results) can be trimmed - File reads that are no longer relevant can be dropped …

How to install
mdr add rohitg00/pro-workflow/compact-guard@git:20260718.7f7209dmdr add rohitg00/pro-workflow/compact-guard@sha256:ac14353eff51868fPin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
