What Is Auto Compact in Claude Code
Auto Compact in Claude Code is Anthropicโs intelligent context management feature that automatically summarizes and compresses long conversation histories when approaching the ~200k token context window limit. It analyzes key decisions, code changes, and project state, replaces older messages with a concise summary, and lets you continue coding seamlesslyโpreventing crashes, token waste, and context loss in extended development sessions. Since version 2.0.64 (early 2026), compaction is near-instant, with manual `/compact` commands and configurable API options for power users.
