"""Algorithmic reproduction and regression for issue #61932.

After several in-place compactions a tool-heavy session can be short enough
that nearly every remaining message sits inside the protected recent tail,
yet those messages are huge completed ``read_file`` / tool outputs.  The
middle compress window is then empty or tiny, preflight makes no material
token progress, and the turn dies with::

    Context length exceeded (174,833 tokens). Cannot compress further.

This is the core compressor contract — not Desktop/Windows-specific.
