lc-agents 0.21.0

// lc-agents/src/executor/compaction.rs
//! Context compaction for long-running agent loops (0.21.0 S6.1).
//!
//! Long sessions accumulate `intermediate_steps` until the context window is
//! wasted on stale tool observations (context rot). Compaction drops the
//! oldest steps — **always at whole-step boundaries** so the model never sees
//! an orphaned action without its observation (each `AgentStep` bundles the
//! action + observation, which is the atomic unit here).
//!
//! Follows the [`super::budget::BudgetConfig`] discipline:
//! - configuration is all-off by default (`None` on the executor = no
//!   compaction, zero behavior change);
//! - the same semantics run in the invoke and stream paths;
//! - trigger and strategy are pure functions, unit-testable without an agent.
//!
//! `RecursiveSummarization` (LLM-summarize dropped turns into a synthetic
//! prefix) is deliberately NOT in this version — it needs an LLM call, cost
//! accounting and quality tuning. The strategy enum keeps room for it.
