# Compact-mode evidence log

Log representative observations from real `smriti state --compact --stats` usage during Smriti development. One row per notable session or checkpoint — not every single call. Focus on cases where compact mode either helped (saved meaningful context) or hurt (agent missed an artifact it needed). Do not log routine calls with no artifacts.

Run `smriti state <space> --compact --stats` to get the numbers. The "Artifact fetched?" and "Missing context?" columns are filled manually after the session.

| Date | Agent | Task | Checkpoint | Full chars | Compact chars | Saved chars | Reduction % | Artifact fetched? | Missing context? | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
