Summary
AutoCompact is a method that trains coding agents to decide when and how to compact context during long software engineering tasks involving code inspection, search, editing, and testing. This approach helps agents preserve relevant working states and continue effectively as earlier exploration bec...

What happened
Coding agents solve repository-level software engineering tasks through long trajectories of code inspection, search, editing, and testing. As a task progresses, earlier exploration becomes stale, so managing context is more than avoiding overflow: an agent must decide when to compact, what working state to...
Why it matters
Managing context efficiently is crucial for coding agents working on complex, long-horizon tasks to avoid overflow and maintain performance. AutoCompact addresses this by enabling agents to optimize their working memory and decision-making over extended coding sessions.
