Subject: [PATCH] feat: generalized compaction prompts with split turn handling
(#391)
* feat: generalized compaction prompts with split turn handling
Replace browser-specific XML prompts with domain-agnostic markdown format.
Add split turn detection and parallel summarization for large single-turn
conversations. Switch compaction from generateText to streamText for
Fireworks API compatibility. Add comprehensive unit and E2E tests (84 total).
* fix: address code review issues for compaction (PR #391)
Enforce COMPACTION_MAX_SUMMARIZATION_INPUT cap, extract shared
callSummarizer helper, add runtime type guard for experimental_context,
move magic constants to AGENT_LIMITS, and remove dead constants.
* fix: cap truncatedTurnPrefix input to maxSummarizationInput
Apply the same sliding window cap to turn prefix messages that was
already applied to toSummarize, preventing unbounded LLM input for
long single-turn conversations with many tool calls.
* fix: reduce browseros-auto default context window to 200K
The 400K setting caused compaction to trigger at ~383K, but the actual
model limit is 262K. Conversations hit the hard limit before compaction
could kick in.
