 Auto-compaction fires before **every** step, not once per turn. This is **load-bearing for runaway-turn survival**: a tool-heavy ReAct turn appends an `assistant/message` + a `tool/result` per step, so the surface grows *within* a turn. A single turn can grow past the window on its own (a "runaway turn") — and the only moment to rescue it before the next model call overflows is the next step's `pre-step` checkpoint. Gating compaction to a turn's first step (or, worse, retaining the whole in-flight turn verbatim) re-opens exactly the hole compaction exists to close: the harness would die when compaction is most needed.
 
-`compactIfNeeded` retains the smallest tail of whole surface units whose estimated size reaches `retainTokens` and compacts older nodes. A unit is a complete closed step or one no-step message. If the token cutoff lands inside a step, retention expands until the cut is tool-pairing balanced. Balance is checked on surface order, not log sequence, because replacement summaries have new sequence numbers at old surface positions. `compactRegion` rejects boundaries that split a tool call from its result. The in-flight turn receives no special retention.

If the token cutoff lands inside a step, retention expands until the cut is tool-pairing balanced. Balance is checked on surface order, not log sequence, because replacement summaries have new sequence numbers at old surface positions. `dsh-compact` exports the before/after edge helpers; their per-session cache folds only appended surface-tail nodes while `replaceGeneration` is unchanged, does no event reads for log-only growth, and rebuilds current membership and balances after replacement. `compactRegion` rejects boundaries that split a tool call from its result. The in-flight turn receives no special retention.
 
 A runaway turn thus compacts exactly like any other history: its early *closed* steps get summarized while its recent steps stay verbatim. When the only compactable content left is an un-splittable open tail step (its tool-calls have no results yet), compaction declines (`null`) and retries once that step closes.

 - **`SessionEventMap`** gains `compact/start` / `compact/summary` / `compact/end` by declaration merging (merge-extensible); `SurfaceEventType` is **not** touched. These are session events, not cordis `Events`, so the event-taxonomy gate needs no entry.
-- **`dsh-session`** gains the tool-pairing balance predicate (`isToolPairingBalanced`, in `tool-pairing.ts`, exported from the package index) that `compactRegion`/`compactIfNeeded` use to keep a collapsed region from splitting a step's tool-call/result pair. The surface `replace` op and the surface-metadata runtime guard already existed and are reused.
+- **`dsh-compact`** owns `toolPairingBalancedBefore(session, seq)` and `toolPairingBalancedAfter(session, seq)`, the cached surface-edge checks that `compactRegion` and `compactIfNeeded` use to avoid splitting a tool-call/result pair. The cache validates current membership by seq and answers both edges from one per-cut balance sequence; stale or missing seqs and orphan results reject. `dsh-session` continues to own the surface `replace` operation, ordered event sequences, and rewrite generation.
 - **`dsh-invariants`** drops its `surface replace: start must be <= end` assertion: a head-anchored compaction lands a high-seq replacement entry at an older range's *position*, so `start > end` numerically is normal and valid (the range is positional, validated by the surface's `indexOf` checks that remain). The turn-enclosure invariant is reused unchanged.
 - **Wiring**: `dsh-compact-basic` is loaded in `examples/coding-agent`'s `cordis.yml`, so the seam ships in the real demo (it was previously loaded nowhere).
