Afterwards it shows a short notice. That notice now reads either `Conversation compacted` or `Conversation summarized`, followed by a hint that depends on where the compaction happened. Before, it always ended with `(ctrl+o for history)`.\n\nWhen Claude Code is not running in fullscreen, the conversation is also treated as a fresh one on screen after the old messages are replaced.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe history hint may now look different, or may not appear at all, after compaction.\n\n- Area: Compaction\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
