Operational Mechanics

Runtime Operations

1. Context Management

• Monitoring: Check tokens via /status or observing response latency.
• Optimization: Use managing-context for compression strategies.
• Degradation: Performance drops >40% usage. Reset or fork session.

2. Session Control

• Plan Mode: Double Shift+Tab for high-reasoning tasks.
• Forking: Isolate heavy tasks to avoid polluting main context.
• Checkpoints: Use _state.md to persist progress across sessions.
