It supports \"rolling over\" unused budget and re-anchoring the tracker, and it logs an event each time the remaining budget crosses 75%, 50%, 25%, 10%, or 0% of the total, along with how many rollovers have happened and how long since the tracker was last anchored.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis gives finer-grained visibility into how token budgets are consumed over a session, which can help identify when context is running low before it becomes a problem.\n\n- Area: Elsewhere\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5"}
