Source Intelligence

DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Auto-Compact Notification

Claude now displays a helpful message when auto-compact is enabled: "Auto-compact is enabled. When the context window is nearly full, older messages will be automatically summarized so you can continue working seamlessly. There is no need to stop or rush — you have unlimited context through automatic compaction."

Evidence

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
