Context Optimization Techniques

Context optimization extends effective capacity through strategic compression, masking, caching, and partitioning. Effective optimization can double or triple effective context capacity.

When to Activate

• Context limits constrain task complexity
• Optimizing for cost reduction (fewer tokens = lower costs)
• Reducing latency for long conversations
• Building production systems at scale

Core Strategies

Compaction

Summarize context contents when approaching limits, reinitialize with summary.
