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?
