"本专栏基于开源项目 learn-claude-code 的官方文档。原文档非常硬核，为了方便像我一样的新手小白理解，我对文档进行了逐行精读 ，并加入了很多中文注释、大白话解释和踩坑记录。希望这套'咀嚼版'教程能帮你推开 AI Agent 开发的大门。"

"上下文总会满, 要有办法腾地方" -- 三层压缩策略, 换来无限会话。

一、问题-上下文窗口膨胀导致的长期运行能力限制

上下文窗口是有限的。读一个 1000 行的文件就吃掉 ~4000 token; 读 30 个文件、跑 20 条命令, 轻松突破 100k token。不压缩, 智能体根本没法在大项目里干活。

在之前的版本中，智能体采用的都是简单的消息累积模式，也就是每次工具调用的结果都完整保存在对话历史中；随着交互轮次的增加，messages列表会不断的增长；当token数量在接近LLM上下文窗口限制的时候，就会使它性能急剧下降、关键信息丢失以至于最后无法正常工作。

二、解决方案

三层压缩, 激进程度递增:

Every turn:
+------------------+
| Tool call result |
+------------------+
        |
        v
[Layer 1: micro_compact]        (silent, every turn)
  Replace tool_result > 3 turns old
  with "[Previous: used {tool_name}]"
        |
        v
[Check: tokens > 50000?]
   |               |
   no              yes
   |               |
   v               v
continue    [Layer 2: auto_compact]
              Save transcript to .transcripts/
              LLM summarizes conversation.
              Replace all messages with [summary].
                    |
                    v
            [Layer 3: compact tool]
              Model calls compact explicitly.
              Same summarization as auto_compact.

Layer 1: micro_compact（微观压缩）

  • 触发时机：每轮对话前自动执行
  • 压缩策略 ：保留最近3次工具调用的完整结果，更早的结果替换为占位符[Previous: used {tool_name}]
  • 优势：轻量级、无感知，显著减少重复工具输出的token消耗

Layer 2: auto_compact（自动压缩）

  • 触发条件：当估算token数超过50,000阈值时

  • 压缩流程：

    1. 将完整对话历史持久化到.transcripts/目录
    2. 调用LLM对整个对话进行智能摘要
    3. 用摘要替换原有消息列表，仅保留关键信息

  • 优势：自动化处理，确保智能体永远不会因上下文过长而失效

Layer 3: compact tool（手动压缩）

  • 触发方式 ：智能体主动调用compact工具
  • 使用场景：当智能体意识到需要重置上下文或聚焦特定任务时
  • 优势：赋予智能体主动管理上下文的能力，实现更精细的控制

三、工作原理

  1. 第一层 -- micro_compact: 每次 LLM 调用前, 将旧的 tool result 替换为占位符。通过四个阶段实现智能上下文压缩：1、扫描并收集所有工具调用结果；2、然后基于保留策略判断是否需要压缩；3、构建工具ID到名称的映射关系以维持语义完整性；4、将冗余的历史结果替换为简洁的占位符，从而在保持对话连贯性的同时显著减少token消耗。
python 复制代码 
def micro_compact(messages: list) -> list:
	# 第一阶段：收集所有工具结果
    tool_results = []
    for i, msg in enumerate(messages):
        if msg["role"] == "user" and isinstance(msg.get("content"), list):
            for j, part in enumerate(msg["content"]):
                if isinstance(part, dict) and part.get("type") == "tool_result":
                    tool_results.append((i, j, part))
    # 第二阶段：早期退出条件
    if len(tool_results) <= KEEP_RECENT: # 当工具结果数量不超过保留阈值（默认3个）时，无需压缩
        return messages
    # 第三阶段：构建工具名称映射表
    tool_name_map = {}
    for msg in messages:
        if msg["role"] == "assistant":
            content = msg.get("content", [])
            if isinstance(content, list):
                for block in content:
                    if hasattr(block, "type") and block.type == "tool_use":
                        tool_name_map[block.id] = block.name
    # 第四阶段：执行压缩替换
    to_clear = tool_results[:-KEEP_RECENT]
    for _, _, result in to_clear:
        if isinstance(result.get("content"), str) and len(result["content"]) > 100:
            tool_id = result.get("tool_use_id", "")
            tool_name = tool_name_map.get(tool_id, "unknown")
            result["content"] = f"[Previous: used {tool_name}]"
    return messages
  1. 第二层 -- auto_compact: token 超过阈值时, 保存完整对话到磁盘, 让 LLM 做摘要。当token估算超过阈值时，自动触发全局压缩。通过三个阶段实现完整的对话历史压缩：1、持久化完整对话历史到.transcripts/目录，确保数据安全和可恢复性；2、调用LLM生成结构化摘要，明确要求包含已完成工作、当前状态和关键决策三个维度；3、用仅包含摘要和状态确认的2条消息替换原始历史，同时保留transcript文件路径以维持可追溯性，从而在保证任务连续性的同时极大降低token消耗。
python 复制代码 
def auto_compact(messages: list) -> list:
    # Save full transcript to disk
    TRANSCRIPT_DIR.mkdir(exist_ok=True)
    transcript_path = TRANSCRIPT_DIR / f"transcript_{int(time.time())}.jsonl"
    with open(transcript_path, "w") as f:
        for msg in messages:
            f.write(json.dumps(msg, default=str) + "\n")
    print(f"[transcript saved: {transcript_path}]")
    # Ask LLM to summarize
    conversation_text = json.dumps(messages, default=str)[:80000]
    response = client.messages.create(
        model=MODEL,
        messages=[{"role": "user", "content":
            "Summarize this conversation for continuity. Include: "
            "1) What was accomplished, 2) Current state, 3) Key decisions made. "
            "Be concise but preserve critical details.\n\n" + conversation_text}],
        max_tokens=2000,
    )
    summary = response.content[0].text
    # Replace all messages with compressed summary
    return [
        {"role": "user", "content": f"[Conversation compressed. Transcript: {transcript_path}]\n\n{summary}"},
        {"role": "assistant", "content": "Understood. I have the context from the summary. Continuing."},
    ]
  1. 第三层 -- manual compact : compact 工具按需触发同样的摘要机制。这里的manual不是指人工手动调用，而是指由LLM主动调用。不像auto_compact那样基于token阈值自动触发，而是由智能体根据任务需要决定何时压缩。
ini 复制代码 
# 检测是否调用了compact工具
manual_compact = False
for block in response.content:
    if block.type == "tool_use":
        if block.name == "compact":
            manual_compact = True # 标记需要压缩
            output = "Compressing..."

# 在工具执行完成后检查是否需要手动压缩
if manual_compact:
    print("[manual compact]")
    messages[:] = auto_compact(messages)
  1. 循环整合三层:
ini 复制代码 
def agent_loop(messages: list):
    while True:
        micro_compact(messages)                        # Layer 1
        if estimate_tokens(messages) > THRESHOLD:
            messages[:] = auto_compact(messages)       # Layer 2
        response = client.messages.create(...)
        # ... tool execution ...
        if manual_compact:
            messages[:] = auto_compact(messages)       # Layer 3

完整历史通过 transcript 保存在磁盘上。信息没有真正丢失, 只是移出了活跃上下文。

四、相对 s05 的变更

组件 之前 (s05) 之后 (s06)
Tools 5 5 (基础 + compact)
上下文管理 无 三层压缩
Micro-compact 无 旧结果 -> 占位符
Auto-compact 无 token 阈值触发
Transcripts 无 保存到 .transcripts/

五、试一试

bash 复制代码 
cd learn-claude-code
python agents/s06_context_compact.py

试试这些 prompt (英文 prompt 对 LLM 效果更好, 也可以用中文):

  1. Read every Python file in the agents/ directory one by one (观察 micro-compact 替换旧结果)
  2. Keep reading files until compression triggers automatically
  3. Use the compact tool to manually compress the conversation
