fix(compact): harden summarization convergence

Browse Source 
Use maxTokens as the provider generation cap and remove the confusing stored-summary max config.

Strip reasoning blocks before storing compaction summaries, reject non-shrinking summaries, and retry bounded re-compaction when the surface remains over threshold.

Add config validation for numeric and type-shaped knobs plus unit and real-API e2e coverage for reasoning-capable summarization.

`CompactService` (`ctx.compact`, abstract — defined in [`packages/compact/compact/src/index.ts`](../../packages/compact/compact/src/index.ts)) declares two abstract methods: `compactIfNeeded(agent, turn, step, fullSystemPrompt, signal)` checks token pressure and compacts an older range if the history is too large (returning `null` when nothing needs it), and `compactRegion(session, start, end, agent, turn, step, signal?)` forcibly summarizes surface nodes `[start, end]` into a single replacement node. `compactIfNeeded`'s parameters are all required — the loop's `agent/pre-step` checkpoint supplies the agent, lifecycle context, assembled `fullSystemPrompt`, and turn `signal`. A backend summarizing via `ctx.llm.stream()` must forward `signal` into the call's `GenerateOptions.signal`, so an abort or dispose tears down the in-flight summarization. The entire strategy — token estimation, retention policy, event sequencing, summarization — is a HOW decision owned by the implementation.
Auto-compaction runs on the serial `agent/pre-step` loop seam (fired once per step, after `turn/start` and BEFORE the step opens and its request history is derived), not the `agent/request` waterfall: compaction mutates the session surface in place — with its log-only `compact/*` records landing cleanly outside any step — and the loop derives the request from the already-compacted surface. Retention is turn-agnostic — the only structural guard is tool-pairing balance (a compacted region's edges are balanced cuts on the surface, so it never splits a step's tool-calls from their results), so a single runaway turn that alone exceeds the window compacts its own early closed steps rather than being retained verbatim. The backend that ships this (`dsh-compact-basic`) documents the retention walk, the approximate convergence invariant, and the crash/recoverable failure taxonomy.
