Prefer the more user-friendly idleCompactAfterMinutes name for auto compact while keeping sessionTtlMinutes as a backward-compatible alias. Update tests and README to document the retained recent-context behavior and the new preferred key.
Keep a legal recent suffix in idle auto-compacted sessions so resumed chats preserve their freshest live context while older messages are summarized. Recover persisted summaries even when retained messages remain, and document the new behavior.
Make Consolidator.archive() return the summary string directly instead
of writing to history.jsonl then reading back via get_last_history_entry().
This eliminates a race condition where concurrent _archive calls for
different sessions could read each other's summaries from the shared
history file (cross-user context leak in multi-user deployments).
Also removes Consolidator.get_last_history_entry() — no longer needed.
When a user is idle for longer than a configured TTL, nanobot **proactively** compresses the session context into a summary. This reduces token cost and first-token latency when the user returns — instead of re-processing a long stale context with an expired KV cache, the model receives a compact summary and fresh input.
