arXiv:2605.23296v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-horizon LLM agents accumulate growing conversation histories that eventually exceed the model's context window. Context compaction via LLM-based summarization keeps the conversation bounded, but summarization is inherently lossy and the blocking call stalls agent inference for tens of seconds. Moreover, the operator has no fine-grained control over summary volume since prompt instructions are largely ignored, and as context grows, both the amount of output tokens the model produces and the information it retains fluctuate substantially from
