forge-compactlisted

# forge-compact Bring the project's recurring context cost back under budget. The six files plus the entry point and digest are what every session pays to load; this skill is the guided maintenance pass that keeps that price low. Budgets, tiers, and the digest contract are defined canonically in `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/forge-resume/references/token-economy.md` — read it first. ## Argument Text after the command targets specific files (e.g. `/forge-compact the tracker` or `/forge-compact generate the digest`) — measure everything (step 1) but treat only the target in steps 2–3. No argument → full pass. ## 1. Measure Run the measurement (read-only) and compare against the canonical budgets: ```bash for f in CLAUDE.md AGENTS.md context/*.md; do [ -f "$f" ] && printf '%-34s %6s bytes ~%5s tok\n' "$f" "$(wc -c <"$f")" "$(( $(wc -c <"$f") / 4 ))" done ``` Report a table to the user: file, size, budget, verdict (OK / over). Include the estimated **per-session saving** the compact pass would deliver (sum of the overages, plus the digest saving below if the project has no digest yet). The measurement can be delegated to the `forge-archivist` agent; the compression judgment in step 2 cannot. ## 2. Propose, then compress (approval required per file) Never trim meaning: compression rewrites for density — it does not drop facts, invariants, decisions, or scope statements without explicit user approval. For each over-budget file, propose the appropriate treatment and appl
