What's Wrong?
Claude code says that my context is reached, but when I'm trying to compact I get an error
I'm using following envs:
export ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL="openai/gpt-5.1-codex-max"
export ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL="openai/gpt-5.2-pro"
export ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_HAIKU_MODEL="minimax/minimax-m2:exacto"
What Should Happen?
I should be able to continue the work.

Steps to Reproduce
- make agent run for a long time so their context is filled
- compactify it
- observe it doesn't work
- if it does work try to use envs I set above to use GPT instead of Claude models
