Summary of Changes

Hello @raphaelmansuy, I'm Gemini Code Assist[^1]! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request introduces a new 'Session Compaction' feature designed to optimize token usage in long-running conversations. It achieves this by automatically summarizing older parts of the conversation history using an LLM, replacing the original events with a concise summary in the LLM's context. This significantly reduces the number of tokens sent to the LLM while preserving conversational context, leading to cost savings and improved performance for extended interactions. The feature is configurable through new CompactionConfig options, allowing fine-tuning of when and how compaction occurs, and includes mechanisms to maintain context continuity. Comprehensive examples and documentation are provided to facilitate adoption and understanding.

Highlights

  • New Feature: Session Compaction: Introduces a new session compaction feature to automatically summarize older conversation history using an LLM, significantly reducing token usage in long-running conversations.
  • Configurable Compaction Logic: The new compaction package provides a Compactor and Config struct, allowing configuration of compaction interval, overlap size, custom LLM model for summarization, and system prompts.
  • Integration with Core Components: The CompactionConfig has been integrated into launcher.Config and runner.Config, enabling the feature across console and web launchers.
  • Intelligent Event Filtering: A new internal/context/compaction_filter.go file provides logic to filter session events for LLM context, ensuring that only compaction summaries and non-compacted events are sent, preventing redundant token usage.
  • Comprehensive Documentation and Examples: New documentation (GETTING_STARTED.md, README.md) and a debug example (debug/main.go) have been added to guide users on how to enable, configure, and observe session compaction.
  • Asynchronous Compaction Triggering: Compaction is triggered asynchronously after each successful invocation within the runner, ensuring minimal impact on the main conversation flow.

How does this change relate to ADK's official compaction capabilities? An experimental implementation is at https://github.com/google/adk-python/blob/f7f6837fdede6a7670ceedfbeac07f926506f7f6/src/google/adk/apps/app.py#L63 and we will port it to ADK Go once it's more mature.

Yes it is based on this experimental implementation

Oh, great

Since this is a new library, could we import the feature first and then mark it as an experimental, unstable API for use?
