# Context Optimization Task
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Purpose
|
||||||
|
Optimize context for AI agent performance while maintaining relevance and managing token constraints.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Agent Type Configuration
|
||||||
|
- **Dev Agents**: Aggressive optimization (0.9 compression ratio, 2000 token limit)
|
||||||
|
- **Planning Agents**: Balanced optimization (0.7 compression ratio, 8000 token limit)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Procedure
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 1. Context Assessment
|
||||||
|
Analyze current context for:
|
||||||
|
- Token count and distribution
|
||||||
|
- Content relevance scores
|
||||||
|
- Redundancy identification
|
||||||
|
- Priority classification
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 2. Content Prioritization
|
||||||
|
[[LLM: Rank content by relevance to current task, preserving essential information first]]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Priority levels:
|
||||||
|
1. **Critical**: Task-essential information (always preserve)
|
||||||
|
2. **Important**: Supporting context (compress if needed)
|
||||||
|
3. **Background**: General information (aggressive compression/removal)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 3. Context Compression
|
||||||
|
Apply compression based on agent type:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**For Dev Agents** (target: 0.9 compression ratio):
|
||||||
|
- Remove non-code-related content
|
||||||
|
- Compress documentation to code comments
|
||||||
|
- Focus on implementation-relevant information only
|
||||||
|
- Preserve error handling and edge cases
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**For Planning Agents** (target: 0.7 compression ratio):
|
||||||
|
- Maintain strategic context
|
||||||
|
- Compress operational details
|
||||||
|
- Preserve stakeholder information
|
||||||
|
- Keep decision rationale
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 4. Quality Validation
|
||||||
|
Ensure optimized context maintains:
|
||||||
|
- Task completion capability
|
||||||
|
- Decision-making information
|
||||||
|
- Cross-reference integrity
|
||||||
|
- Compliance requirements
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Output Format
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
{{optimized_context}}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

# Context Handoff Task
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Purpose
|
||||||
|
Transfer context between agents while optimizing for receiving agent type and maintaining essential information.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Handoff Types
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Dev Agent Handoff (Lean Context)
|
||||||
|
When transferring TO dev agent:
|
||||||
|
- Maximum 2000 tokens
|
||||||
|
- Focus on implementation requirements only
|
||||||
|
- Strip planning and strategic context
|
||||||
|
- Preserve technical specifications
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Planning Agent Handoff (Rich Context)

# Context Compression Utility
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Purpose
|
||||||
|
Lean utility for token optimization and content compression across all agent types.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Compression Strategies
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Dev Agent Compression (0.9 ratio)
|
||||||
|
- Remove non-code documentation
|
||||||
|
- Compress explanatory text to comments
|
||||||
|
- Focus on implementation details
|
||||||
|
- Preserve error handling patterns
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Planning Agent Compression (0.7 ratio)
|
||||||
|
- Compress operational details
|
||||||
|
- Preserve strategic information
|
||||||
|
- Maintain stakeholder context
|
||||||
|
- Keep decision rationale
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Compression Techniques
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 1. Content Prioritization
|
||||||
|
- Critical: Always preserve (task-essential)
|
||||||
|
- Important: Compress if needed (supporting)
|
||||||
|
- Background: Aggressive removal (general info)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 2. Redundancy Elimination
|
||||||
|
- Remove duplicate information
|
||||||
|
- Merge similar content blocks
|
||||||
|
- Consolidate repetitive patterns
|
||||||
|
- Eliminate circular references
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 3. Format Optimization
|
||||||
|
- Use bullet points over paragraphs
|
||||||
|
- Abbreviate common terms
|
||||||
|
- Remove verbose descriptions
|
||||||
|
- Optimize markdown structure
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 4. Reference Compression
|
||||||
|
- Convert full quotes to references
|
||||||
|
- Use placeholder for large blocks
|
||||||
|
- Link to external sources
|
||||||
|
- Create summary abstracts
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Usage
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
Input: {{content_to_compress}}
|
||||||
|
Target Ratio: {{compression_ratio}}
|
||||||
|
Agent Type: {{agent_type}}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Output: {{compressed_content}}
|
||||||
|
Achieved Ratio: {{actual_ratio}}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Quality Preservation
|
||||||
|
Ensure compression maintains:
|
||||||
|
- Task completion capability
|
||||||
|
- Decision-making information
|
||||||
|
- Critical relationships
|
||||||
|
- Essential context flow
|
||||||
|
```

# Context Filtering Utility
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Purpose
|
||||||
|
Filter content based on relevance, priority, and agent-specific requirements.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Filtering Criteria
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Dev Agent Filtering
|
||||||
|
- Code relevance threshold: >95%
|
||||||
|
- Focus: Implementation details
|
||||||
|
- Exclude: Strategic planning, stakeholder info
|
||||||
|
- Include: Technical specs, error handling
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Planning Agent Filtering
|
||||||
|
- General relevance threshold: >75%
|
||||||
|
- Focus: Strategic and operational context
|
||||||
|
- Exclude: Low-level implementation details
|
||||||
|
- Include: Stakeholder info, process context
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Filtering Process
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 1. Content Scoring
|
||||||
|
Score content by:
|
||||||
|
- Task relevance (0.0-1.0)
|
||||||
|
- Agent role fit (0.0-1.0)
|
||||||
|
- Information freshness (0.0-1.0)
|
||||||
|
- Source credibility (0.0-1.0)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 2. Priority Classification
|
||||||
|
- **Must Include**: Scores >0.9
|
||||||
|
- **Should Include**: Scores 0.7-0.9
|
||||||
|
- **May Include**: Scores 0.5-0.7
|
||||||
|
- **Exclude**: Scores <0.5
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 3. Agent-Specific Rules
|
||||||
|
Apply specialized filtering:
|
||||||
|
- Role-based content preferences
|
||||||
|
- Task-specific requirements
|
||||||
|
- Context length constraints
|
||||||
|
- Performance optimization needs
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 4. Content Selection
|
||||||
|
Final selection based on:
|
||||||
|
- Combined scores
|
||||||
|
- Token budget
|
||||||
|
- Agent capabilities
|
||||||
|
- Task priorities
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Output Format

|
||||||
|
- Multi-dimensional relevance
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 2. Relevance Scoring
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
- Apply compression if needed
|
||||||
|
- Format for agent consumption
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 4. Integration

## 🎯 Risk Management & Mitigation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Current Risk Status: 🟢 LOW RISK
|
||||||
|
**Mitigation Strategies in Place**:
|
||||||
|
- ✅ **Backward Compatibility**: All changes are additive
|
||||||
|
- ✅ **Incremental Testing**: Each phase can be tested independently
|
||||||
|
- ✅ **Rollback Strategy**: Git branching allows easy reversion
|
||||||
|
- ✅ **Size Controls**: File size monitoring to maintain <50KB targets
|
||||||
|
- ✅ **Documentation**: Complete specifications ready for implementation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Risk Indicators to Monitor:
|
||||||
|
- 🟡 **File Size Creep**: Monitor all new files stay <50KB
|
||||||
|
- 🟡 **Dev Agent Scope Creep**: Ensure dev agent stays lean (<100 lines)
|
||||||
|
- 🟡 **Dependency Explosion**: Watch dependency counts per agent
|
||||||
|
- 🟡 **Performance Impact**: Monitor context processing times
