if you look at claude code, it now says compaction is happening constantly, which is likely why

If compaction is throwing away crucial prompting instructions even when it's at a 1% of maximum token usage (like my example), then it's a software bug, not an LLM artifact.

Doesn't compaction invalidate token caching, btw?

[whstl]

I don't see how this has anything to do with my message, sorry.
