How does it help improve AI performance?

By identifying context bloat early, it helps you decide when to clear history or remove irrelevant files, ensuring the AI stays focused and accurate.

When should I start a fresh instance?

The skill recommends starting a fresh instance when utilization exceeds 85% to maintain optimal performance and prevent errors.

What metrics does the report include?

It provides a breakdown of system prompts, tool definitions, conversation history, and files currently read into the context.

Does this skill work with other context management tools?

Yes, it is designed to work alongside skills like @reduce-delegate-framework and context-layers for advanced context engineering.
