I'm also a fan of Pi - although, doesn't Claude code (and most other harnesses) already have "custom summarization instructions" for compaction/summarization that already allow you to do this? Or have you added on something extra?

They way I read it, this is a workaround for pi, not for Claude.

Can you please keep the unsolicited ranting out of the replies? It breaks the guidelines and degrades the value of the site. Thanks!

It's part of the rationale for why one would choose Pi over Claude, even if Pi lacks the feature. I admit my tone is entirely inappropriate though.

It's unrelated to my direct comment and it's a generic tangent off the thread further up, which is about technical issues with Claude Code. As the guidelines say:

"On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity."

"Eschew flamebait. Avoid generic tangents."

"Please don't use Hacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples curiosity."

Nobody wants to see you hijacking technical threads to turn them into political flamewars. It's against the guidelines, anti-intellectual, and profoundly boring.
