# The Complexity Trap: Simple Observation Masking Is as Efficient as LLM Summarization for Agent Context Management
This dataset contains our raw experimental data (ie. agent trajectories) accompanying the paper **"The Complexity Trap: Simple Observation Masking Is as Efficient as LLM Summarization for Agent Context Management"** and Tobias Lindenbauer's Master's thesis.

The data in this repository are compressed to `.tar.gz` archives. For detailed instructions on how to use these data please refer to our code repository on [Github](https://github.com/JetBrains-Research/the-complexity-trap).

If you used these data in your research, or it helped you form a hypothesis, please cite us:
