Tools can declare how their output is compressed before it enters the
context pack, replacing uniform handling. Open-threads 6.3 / ADR-0003.
- core:tools/compression: ToolOutputCompressor interface,
IdentityCompressor default, declarative OutputCompressionSpec +
CompressionRule (StripBlankLines, StripLeadingWhitespace,
DropMatching, HeadTail), and the pure DeclarativeCompressor engine
(regexes compiled at construction; bypassOnError passes raw on
non-zero exit; never throws on input).
- Tool gains `outputCompressor` (default IdentityCompressor). FileReadTool
strips blanks + leading whitespace; ShellTool strips blanks + head/tail.
- SessionOrchestrator applies the resolved tool's compressor on the
ToolResult -> ContextEntry path only. Raw output stays authoritative
in the event log (invariant #6); compression is a pure function of
(raw, exitCode, spec), so no new event and replay stays deterministic.
- Spec is @Serializable/config-shaped (JSON round-trip tested). No
custom-tool-from-config path exists today, so first-party tools wire
in code; TOML-declared compression rides along when that path lands.
Tier B (format-aware parsers: failures-only test output, git-log oneline)
is a documented per-tool extension behind the interface, not built here.
