Produce a lossy compaction summary of TASKSTATE.md when task memory has grown beyond a useful working size, preserving canonical decisions and recommended next step while dropping stale facts. Distinct from sync-task-state (incremental, append-only, never lossy) and state-reconcile (drift repair, no shrinking). Use when task memory has accumulated across multiple slices (5+ completed) and feels heavy, the resume cost is growing as the file scales, the current known facts list is full of resolved or routine entries, or before a session pause where a slim TASKSTATE will speed restart. Do not use when the task is still in early discovery (memory is small), the artifacts disagree across files (use state-reconcile first), an incremental sync would be sufficient (use sync-task-state), or no active task folder exists yet (run task-init first).
