It used to end with \" (this session only)\".\n\nA new internal setting can also start writing the summary that `\/compact` uses in the background, once the conversation reaches a chosen size. `\/compact` frees up room by summarizing the conversation so far. This setting is read only from Claude Code's internal flag settings.\n\n**Why**\n\nThe fast mode notice now says outright what lasts only for the session. Starting the summary early means `\/compact` can find it ready instead of making you wait.\n\n- Area: Compaction\n- Names: `\/compact`\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
