Issue #510 — [Robustness] Context overflow automation — auto-summarize and commit
Problem: Nobody watching context levels. Agent at 80%+ about to lose uncommitted work.
Solution: The context overflow guard script (bin/context-overflow-guard.py) already existed
with full logic but was never run. This adds the launchd daemon registration that makes it
run continuously as a background service.
Implementation:
- deploy/context-overflow-guard.plist — launchd plist that runs the guard as a KeepAlive daemon
- Label: ai.timmy.context-overflow-guard
- Executes: python3 /Users/apayne/.hermes/bin/context-overflow-guard.py --daemon
- Logs to: ~/.hermes/logs/context-overflow-guard.{stdout,stderr}.log
- WorkingDirectory: ~
- Script already implements all thresholds:
- 60%: sends summarization prompt to affected panes
- 80%: urgent force-commit prompt + pane restart
- Monitors ALL panes across all tmux sessions (except Alexander)
- Cycle: every 60 seconds
- State persisted to ~/.local/timmy/fleet-health/tmux-state.json
Usage:
sudo launchctl load ~/.hermes/deploy/context-overflow-guard.plist
# or copy to ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ and load
