context-budget

From the author

Plan a session's context window like the budget it is — what loads up front, what gets linked instead, what stays fetch-on-demand, and how to keep the stable prefix cache-friendly so repeated turns cost cents instead of dollars. Use when asked my agent keeps blowing its context, plan what to load into the session, why is every turn so expensive, or design the context for this workflow. Produces the load/link/fetch allocation, the cache-aware prefix layout, the per-turn cost shape, and the eviction rules for when the window fills anyway.
