Agent Of Empires Daily: Safer Compaction and Per-Project Sandboxing
Agent adapter fixes stop follow-up prompts from aborting compaction, with state now tracked by tool-call ID and cleared on failure. Projects gain a per-project start-in-container default, and web terminal sessions gain diff commenting to the agent pane.

It's October 11th, 2026, and here's your Agent of Empires daily briefing.
The clearest signal today is safer agent turns: sending a message during compaction will now queue instead of aborting the operation.
Two linked fixes drive that. In P-R 4349, the agent adapter layer now detects compaction when it's reported as a tool call titled Compact Conversation, rather than waiting for text output that newer adapters no longer send. Previously, a follow-up sent seconds into compaction could steer into the compacting turn and…
A second theme is session setup and cleanup. P-R 4338 adds a start-in-container default as a per-project override, stored in the project registry alongside worktree and smart-rename defaults. A registered project can now force the sandbox on or off for new sessions, or inherit the global default, set through project…
Finally, P-R 4346 brings diff commenting to terminal sessions on the web. You can annotate changed lines and send the assembled review prompt to the agent pane, with structured delivery and auto-wake, blocked for archived or trashed sessions and for terminal sends in read-only mode.
What's next: expect fewer compaction failures in active sessions, but…
