+// Parts: making room in a long conversation (a checkpoint in place, or a switch to a
+// fresh Session), the handoff note and package, and earlier pages for the chat view.
+//
+// A Bot's conversations are long-lived, and the compaction backend's own pressure
+// line does not apply to them. Once a turn ends with the context past the check line
+// (a share of what the model can take), the context steward (steward.js) reads the
+// latest messages and decides. Work still under way: the older messages are condensed
+// in place into a checkpoint that keeps the messages to the Bot word for word, and
+// the part goes on. Work at a stopping point: the part moves on to a fresh Session,
+// and the old one is archived whole. For that the Bot writes a handoff note while
+// idle, from the same prefix as its own requests, so the provider serves it from
+// cache and nobody waits. A turn that grows past the hard line, near the window, gets
+// the same decision before its next step; a context overflow moves on without a note.
+// The next part opens with the handoff package: the note, the latest messages word for
+// word, and where the rest is. Input that arrives meanwhile waits and moves along.
+// read_own_chat searches every part, the condensed messages included.
