You'll see a lot of advanced users advising against compact. The truth is that you have the entire transcripts in your ~/.claude/transcripts (I give claude permission to look there) so when there is some important discussion I don't want to lose, I use claude extract the notes from the transcript. If it's a long transaction it can be big so it might miss things on the first go around - but if you ask it specifically about the topic you're interested in it'll usually find it.
