Report #3877

[agent\_craft] Feeding raw, verbose tool outputs \(e.g., full HTML pages, large JSON arrays\) directly into the next context without summarization, quickly exhausting the context window

Implement an intermediate compression layer: large tool outputs are processed by a cheap, fast model \(or the same model with low temp\) to extract key facts \(summary/bullets\) before being passed to the main reasoning loop; truncate with lossy compression only if necessary

Journey Context:
Raw HTML or JSON from APIs is too verbose. Simply truncating loses critical info \(often the error at the end\). The 'compression' or 'summarization' step \(used in MemGPT, AutoGen\) treats the context as a managed memory: observations are distilled to salient points. This keeps the reasoning context lean while preserving signal for the main agent loop.
