Could you build this?
Partial Context compaction engines that manipulate prompt prefix caching at the inference engine level require intimate knowledge of LLM KV cache management and token prefix reuse behavior.
What it would actually take: Implementing this requires deep integration with LLM serving engines (vLLM, SGLang, or llama.cpp) to understand exact KV-cache block allocation and prefix hashing. The system must orchestrate conversational compaction where the model outputs an updated memory block directly into a deterministic prefix window, necessitating fine-grained control over prompt token layouts, attention masks, and server cache evictions.
