The conversation is already long and compaction fails. How can I continue without losing progress?

These troubleshooting steps are based on the original report. The issue still needs to be reproduced, and a fix has yet to be confirmed.

Compaction itself needs input budget. Save the session and workspace and record the provider's error. Start a new session with a brief goal, completed changes, current blocker, and next step. Keep the old transcript for lookup.
