This skill should be used when the user asks to "compress context", "summarize conversation history", "implement compaction", "reduce token usage", or mentions context compression, structured summarization, tokens-per-task optimization, or long-running agent sessions exceeding context limits.

This skill should be used when the user asks to "diagnose context problems", "fix lost-in-middle issues", "debug agent failures", "understand context poisoning", or mentions context degradation, attention patterns, context clash, context confusion, or agent performance degradation. Provides patterns for recognizing and mitigating context failures.

This skill should be used when the user asks to "understand context", "explain context windows", "design agent architecture", "debug context issues", "optimize context usage", or discusses context components, attention mechanics, progressive disclosure, or context budgeting. Provides foundational understanding of context engineering for AI agent systems.

This skill should be used when the user asks to "evaluate agent performance", "build test framework", "measure agent quality", "create evaluation rubrics", or mentions LLM-as-judge, multi-dimensional evaluation, agent testing, or quality gates for agent pipelines.

This skill should be used when the user asks to "offload context to files", "implement dynamic context discovery", "use filesystem for agent memory", "reduce context window bloat", or mentions file-based context management, tool output persistence, agent scratch pads, or just-in-time context loading.

This skill should be used when the user asks to "build background agent", "create hosted coding agent", "set up sandboxed execution", "implement multiplayer agent", or mentions background agents, sandboxed VMs, agent infrastructure, Modal sandboxes, self-spawning agents, or remote coding environments.

Guides implementation of agent memory systems, compares production frameworks (Mem0, Zep/Graphiti, Letta, LangMem, Cognee), and designs persistence architectures for cross-session knowledge retention. Use when the user asks to "implement agent memory", "persist state across sessions", "build knowledge graph for agents", "track entities over time", "add long-term memory", "choose a memory framework", or mentions temporal knowledge graphs, vector stores, entity memory, adaptive memory, dynamic memory or memory benchmarks (LoCoMo, LongMemEval).

This skill should be used when the user asks to "design multi-agent system", "implement supervisor pattern", "create swarm architecture", "coordinate multiple agents", or mentions multi-agent patterns, context isolation, agent handoffs, sub-agents, or parallel agent execution.

This skill should be used when the user asks to "start an LLM project", "design batch pipeline", "evaluate task-model fit", "structure agent project", or mentions pipeline architecture, agent-assisted development, cost estimation, or choosing between LLM and traditional approaches.
