Module tokens 

Token estimates (RFC 0026 §5.2, §7). agentd never counts provider tokens itself — the provider’s usage is the truth once a call returns — but the governor’s reservation and the compaction trigger need a number before the call. The heuristic is the usual chars / 4 (English prose ≈ 4 chars a token; JSON and code run denser, which errs on the safe side for a reservation) plus a small per-message overhead. Deliberately simple and dependency-free; the estimate is only ever compared against generous thresholds.

Constants

DEFAULT_MODEL_WINDOW

The default context window when the model is unknown (a conservative modern default; intelligence.model_window overrides).

MESSAGE_OVERHEAD

Per-message framing overhead (role, delimiters).

Functions

estimate

Estimate the tokens of a text.

estimate_value

Estimate the tokens of a JSON value (its compact serialization).

window_for_model

A best-effort window from the model name (kept tiny and obviously approximate; unknown models get the default).
