[Bug] Triple token billing on context continuation and auto-compact

Bug Description
I'm double/triple paying for tokens.

● You're right to be frustrated — the mechanics are wasteful here. What happened:

  1. Original conversation — paid for all those tokens once
  2. Context ran out → continuation — the full transcript got reloaded as input → paid again
  3. /compact ran — processed it all again to generate the summary → paid a third time, arguably

You could explain that context continuation + compaction caused double/triple billing for the same tokens, which is
a legitimate concern worth raising.
