Context Window Management

State file: ~/.openclaw/skill-state/context-window-management/state.yaml

Warning Signs

• Session running for many hours
• Responses getting slower or less coherent
• Carrying context about completed tasks no longer relevant
• Large code blocks in context not being actively used
• Check last_compacted_at in state — if compacted recently this session, prefer a lighter strategy

Reduction Strategies

Summarize Completed Work

Replace detailed context about finished tasks with short summaries. After: write state strategy_used: summarize, current_task, last_compacted_at.
