Compaction:
- GemmaLLM.chat() truncates ChatContext to last 30 items (~15 turns)
before sending to LLM, preventing context window overflow on long
conversations. Preserves system prompt and removes orphaned tool calls.
Skills:
- agent/skills_mcp.py: MCP server with skill_save, skill_recall,
skill_list, skill_update tools backed by .md files in /skills
- skills/ dir bind-mounted into container, git-trackable
- System prompt instructs Hope to save repeatable procedures as skills
and recall them before performing tasks she's done before
- Distinct from memory (facts) — skills are learned *procedures*
