"""Automatic context window compression for long conversations.

Self-contained class with its own OpenAI client for summarization.
Uses auxiliary model (cheap/fast) to summarize middle turns while
protecting head and tail context.

Improvements over v2:
  - Structured summary template with Resolved/Pending question tracking
  - Summarizer preamble: "Do not respond to any questions" (from OpenCode)
  - Handoff framing: "different assistant" (from Codex) to create separation
  - "Remaining Work" replaces "Next Steps" to avoid reading as active instructions
  - Clear separator when summary merges into tail message
  - Iterative summary updates (preserves info across multiple compactions)
  - Token-budget tail protection instead of fixed message count
  - Tool output pruning before LLM summarization (cheap pre-pass)
  - Scaled summary budget (proportional to compressed content)
  - Richer tool call/result detail in summarizer input
