…ustries#59469) Follow up to zed-industries#58883 This makes sure that we subtract the max output tokens before checking the threshold for auto compaction was reached, we had that logic before zed-industries#58883 but we lost it when introducing the settings. Without this GPT models will run out of tokens before auto-compaction is run Release Notes: - (Preview only) Fixed an issue where auto compaction would not be triggered

Adds two new agent settings nested under `auto_compact`, `enabled` and `threshold`, which control automatic compaction of the agent's context window as part of the handoff feature. Both surface in the settings UI under Agent Configuration, gated behind the `handoff` feature flag so they only appear for users on that flag. The `threshold` accepts three forms: a percentage string ending in `%` (e.g. `"80%"` or `"95.5%"`) measured against the model's context window, a positive integer to compact after that many tokens have been used, or a negative integer to compact once that many tokens remain in the window. `0` and bare non-integer numbers are rejected. It deserializes from either a JSON string or integer and resolves to a typed enum, falling back to the `"80%"` default (with a logged warning) when the configured value is invalid. In the settings UI the threshold is a free-form text field so all three forms can be entered. Release Notes: - N/A --------- Co-authored-by: Bennet Bo Fenner <bennetbo@gmx.de>
