when claude code runs out of context, there's no way to compact automaticaly/manually

[joefitzgerald]

Support for claude code is much appreciated! However it's not usable for extended work because the moment you run out of context, you receive the Prompt is too long error. At that point, the thread is dead. There's no way to compact the context and continue your work in Zed.

I was able to launch claude --resume in the terminal, reattach to the Zed-initiated claude code session, and then run compact to continue my work.

Please add slash command support for working with the context and/or an option to turn on automatic compaction.

Thanks for creating this discussion. Also there should be a way to resume last session by default.
