## Description

[omh] Context window or token budget at risk: plan compact context, token/cost budgets, summarization checkpoints, and overflow recovery before long agent work. Use when the user says: context-budget-review, context budget review, context budget, token budget review, token budget, prompt budget, prompt caching, prompt cache.

# Context Budget Review

This is an OMH `context-budget-review` workflow skill, projected for Agent Skills hosts (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, opencode, OpenClaw, pi).

## Why This Exists

`context-budget-review` ports ECC's context-budget and token-budget instincts into OMH as a compactness gate that protects long-running work without redefining success around a smaller task.

## Do Not Use When

- The user asks only what this Hermes session has used or cost so far; Hermes' /usage shows this session's tokens and context, /insights estimates cost across recent sessions, and the omh_run_summary tool relays this conversation's recorded tokens and cost.
- The user asks to continue a loopable goal; use `ulw-loop` unless budget planning is the explicit blocker.
- The task is a short one-step answer with no meaningful context risk.

## Examples

Good example:

- Prompt: context-budget-review 이 장기 PR 작업에서 어떤 맥락을 꼭 유지하고 언제 요약해야 하는지 잡아줘.
- Expected behavior: Prepare context_budget_plan/v1, must_keep_context_pack/v1, checkpoint plan, risk register, and overflow recovery route.
- Why: The request is about preserving context quality during long-running agent work.

Bad example:

- Prompt: context-budget-review 토큰 아끼려고 원래 목표를 더 작은 목표로 바꿔줘.
- Expected behavior: Reject goal shrinking and instead compact context while preserving the full objective and evidence gaps.
- Why: Budget review optimizes context handling, not the user's requested end state.

## Completion Checklist

- The run or workflow scope, metric window, failure modes, and cost/latency boundary are named.
- Local telemetry, provider truth, billing truth, and completion evidence are separate states.
- Warnings name the next measurement or operator review action.

## Recovery Notes

- If provider metrics are unavailable, report only local metadata and mark provider truth not_observed.
- If cost or latency looks risky, surface a warning plus the next measurement rather than a completion claim.
