Is it reasonable to continuously compress the context during the implement-spec process? #1244
Closed as not planned
Description
Before filing
- I've read
SCOPE.mdand checked.out-of-scope/, and this isn't covered by either.
Skill
implement-spec
What went wrong
On macOS, using the Codex desktop app with the sol 6.1 high model, one spec was split into 5 tickets,then, in a new session, using implement-spec triggered context compaction twice.
Proposed change
If the compression is normal, then no change is needed. I'm just curious.

Compaction during a long /implement-spec run is expected: it orchestrates several tickets in one session, and the harness compacts when the context fills. Nothing went wrong here, so there's no change to make. Questions like this are best asked in GitHub Discussions. Closing.
