Bug Description
First few auto or manual compacts work then it will run up to zero and not allow compact -->
"Error: Error during compaction: Error: Conversation too long. Press esc twice to go up a few messages and try again."
Interestingly if you ask Claude how much context is left he will say something like "We have 64k tokens left, plenty for a few more turns".
