A safety rule and an episodic log compete for the same tokens in an AI agent's context. When the budget overflows, both are summarized at the same rate; only the rule needs exact wording to remain enforceable. On 20 production agent configurations, Claude Code's /compact prompt on Sonnet 4.6 preserves 53\% of...
