Report #30907

[frontier] Agent context window filling up and truncating critical system instructions or early tool outputs

Implement a 'Rolling Context' with a priority queue: system prompts and current task state are pinned, while older conversational turns and tool outputs are summarized or evicted based on relevance scores, not just FIFO.

Journey Context:
Most frameworks just truncate the oldest messages \(FIFO\). This is catastrophic when the agent loses the original goal or a crucial API key returned early in the session. Production agents need a memory manager that compresses historical turns into a running summary and keeps high-signal artifacts \(like error logs or structured state\) pinned in the context window.
