Semi-retroactively: my agent has a command to /compact and its then that I pop the interface. It gets opened automatically if the context is full, too, and then I've gone back and fed some recorded sessions into it as well days later too, to test things out. Still getting the hang of it, but I won't be surprised to see much bigger teams/companies do something similar (I assume they are already, really)

The /compact trigger is a clean pattern — agent-initiated but human-confirmed. Makes the interface feel more like a review than an interruption.

The retroactive feeding of recorded sessions is underrated. That's basically supervised compaction - you're labeling what mattered in hindsight, which is almost always cleaner signal than in-flight decisions.

I suspect the labs are doing something like this at scale but the hard part is that "what mattered" is user-specific. A generic compaction model trained on aggregate data probably smooths over the individual coherence preferences that make it actually useful.

We ended up open-sourcing the memory layer as an MCP server (engram-mcp) if youre interested at how we handled the certainty/recall side.

Interested in what your session recordings look like structurally or are they raw transcripts or do you extract structure before feeding them in?
