Pi Jev Compact

A Pi extension for selective, verbatim context compaction: Jev scores every tool call and its result, unneeded calls are dropped, and everything kept stays byte-identical. The README measured 15.5% reclaimed on a synthetic window, rising to 33.5% with prose included.

Highlights

  • Jev is asked two nouls per non-pinned tool call: call_tN (does knowing the call was made still matter) and result_tN (must the output stay verbatim).
  • Decisions map to keep call and result, keep call with a truncated result, or drop both; what remains in the replay is byte-identical.
  • By default only tool calls and results are candidates, matching prior art; /jev-compact text adds assistant prose under a stricter threshold.
  • Measured on a synthetic 1,860-message window, reclaiming 15.5% from tool results became 33.5% when prose was added, per the README.
  • The compaction writes a new session via ctx.newSession and replays survivors; the previous session file is never modified.

Watch out

Grounded in the truncated repo README and GitHub metadata read on 2026-10-15; the excerpt ends inside the session mechanics section, before install instructions. The README itself warns that all 85 tests use a fake Jev or stubbed transport and that live keep/drop quality has not been measured against any reference.
