/**
 * Strategic Compact Suggester
 *
 * Cross-platform (Windows, macOS, Linux)
 *
 * Runs on PreToolUse or periodically to suggest manual compaction at logical intervals
 *
 * Why manual over auto-compact:
 * - Auto-compact happens at arbitrary points, often mid-task
 * - Strategic compacting preserves context through logical phases
 * - Compact after exploration, before execution
 * - Compact after completing a milestone, before starting next
 *
 * Two signals (#2155):
 * - Tool-call count: first at COMPACT_THRESHOLD (default 50), then every 25.
 * - Context size (primary): the latest assistant `usage` record from the
 *   session transcript, compared against a window-scaled token threshold
 *   (COMPACT_CONTEXT_THRESHOLD; default 160k on a 200k window, 250k on 1M),
 *   re-reminding after every COMPACT_CONTEXT_INTERVAL tokens of growth
 *   (default 60k). Tool count is a weak proxy for window pressure — a few
 *   large reads can fill the window in very few calls, and many tiny calls
 *   can cross 50 while the window is barely used.
