From pro-workflow
Saves critical files, task progress, decisions, and next steps before Claude Code compaction for post-compact restoration. Use before /compact or auto-compact triggers.

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.
Preserves critical context data before Claude Code's automatic compaction using snapshots and integrity verification to prevent information loss in complex projects.
Suggests manual context compaction at logical intervals to preserve context through task phases rather than arbitrary auto-compaction.
Manages Claude Code context window usage: monitors statusline, degradation thresholds, compacts with structured handoffs (/create-handoff, /compact, /resume-handoff), and validates summaries. For long sessions nearing limits.

Use before /compact or when auto-compact warning appears.

Before full compaction, try microcompact:
After compaction, immediately:
| Strategy | Token Savings | When |
|---|---|---|
| Delegate grep/search to subagent | 30-60% per search | Always for broad searches |
Read only needed lines (offset/limit) | 50-90% per read | Large files |
| Compact at task boundaries | Preserves coherence | Between logical steps |
Use /resume for fresh start | 100% | Unrelated new task |
After running compact-guard:
COMPACT GUARD
Files to preserve: [list top 5]
Task state: [one sentence]
Decisions: [key choices]
Next step: [immediate action after compact]
Ready to compact. Run /compact now.
