compact

The `/oh-my-claudecode:compact` command prepares context for manual Claude Code conversation compaction by instructing users to invoke the native `/compact` command directly with any provided notes. This helper exists because plugin commands cannot trigger Claude Code's built-in compaction, which requires manual invocation as a bare slash command to ensure proper lifecycle execution and preservation of OMC pre-compact hooks.

Install in Claude Code
Copy
mkdir -p ~/.claude/commands && curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Yeachan-Heo/oh-my-claudecode/HEAD/commands/compact.md -o ~/.claude/commands/compact.md
Then start a new Claude Code session; the slash command loads automatically.

# OMC Manual Context Compaction Helper

This command intentionally uses the plugin-scoped name `/oh-my-claudecode:compact` instead of the bare `/compact` command. Bare `/compact` is reserved for Claude Code's native compaction command and must not be shadowed by OMC.

OMC cannot invoke Claude Code's built-in `/compact` from a plugin command: `/compact` is a native slash command, not a prompt skill, and a prompt-skill call for `compact` is not a supported handoff. This helper is instruction-only and must not claim that OMC triggers compaction itself.

## Dispatch

1. Treat this as a request to prepare for manual Claude Code conversation compaction. Do not create a separate OMC summarizer and do not replace existing auto-compress behavior.
2. Preserve any user note for the compaction request:

```text
$ARGUMENTS
```

3. Tell the user to run Claude Code's built-in bare `/compact` command directly. If the note above is non-empty, tell them to include it with `/compact`.
4. Before handing off, remind the user that Claude Code's normal `PreCompact` lifecycle should run OMC's existing pre-compact hooks (`pre-compact`, project memory, and wiki preservation) when the native compaction occurs.
5. Do not invoke a `compact` skill, do not attempt to call `/compact` on the user's behalf, and do not manually summarize the session.

## User-facing handoff

Use this wording, adapting only the note text:

```text
OMC prepared the compaction context, but plugin commands cannot trigger Claude Code's native /compact directly. Run this as a bare Claude Code command now:

/compact $ARGUMENTS

Bare /compact remains Claude Code's native command; OMC does not shadow or invoke it.
```
