Context management

Builders operate within a finite context window. To keep conversations useful and within the maximum token limit, Brixel manages context automatically.

How context is managed

When the conversation exceeds the maximum context size:

  1. A summary of the oldest messages is generated.
  2. The original early messages are replaced by the summary.
  3. The most recent messages remain intact.

This keeps the conversation coherent while reducing total context size.

Why this matters

  • Preserves key information from earlier in the conversation.
  • Maintains recency for the latest instructions and actions.
  • Prevents context overflow without losing the thread.
