Compact Guard

Claude's compaction system only restores 5 files at 5K tokens each after wiping context, which means you lose everything else without warning. This skill gives you a pre-flight checklist: save your current task, list the files you're editing, note any decisions made, and identify blockers before you hit /compact. It also suggests microcompact strategies like using subagents for heavy searches or reading files with line limits to delay the inevitable. The output is a simple state snapshot you can reference after compaction to get back on track. Honestly just a structured reminder to write things down before your context gets nuked, but that's exactly what you need when the auto-compact warning appears mid-session.
