Rift Vessel Compactor

Turns each Rift Vessel embodiment session into a compact, factual operational recap and stores it in the dedicated vessel_diary table.

This is a different scope from the G.R.I.L.L.O. Compactor: Grillo synthesises long-term memories; this plugin only ever summarises a single vessel session’s activity log. They are intentionally two separate plugins.

When it runs

Compaction happens only when a session reaches the ENDED state — a true disconnect, an explicit logout, or a cooldown/grace-window close. It never fires while the session is CONNECTED or merely RECONNECTING.

The work is done off the message chain: when a session ends, the id is pushed onto this plugin’s internal low-priority worker queue and the recap is produced in the background. No in-world turn, no Agent Lane, no Drone.

What it produces

• Source: only recap-eligible world-event rows in the session’s mixed vessel_activity_log audit table. Player chat, Synth speech, and outbound action requests remain available to the Activities UI but are not treated as proof that an action happened. Structured connector outcomes (such as gained, collected, and positions) are aggregated deterministically before the model writes prose.

• Output: a factual, third-person recap (no first-person / personality), chunked and folded so a long session never overruns a single LLM call, saved to vessel_diary with reason = "activity_recap".

• Fail-safe: any LLM error degrades to a deterministic plain-text join; an empty eligible event log produces no entry.

It never writes to the shared ai_diary — that would pollute every non-vessel prompt.

Run it manually

Use the Run compaction button on this plugin’s card (WebUI → Plugins). With no payload it recaps the most recently ended session; pass {"session_id": "..."} to target a specific one.

Configuration

Key	Default	Purpose
VESSEL_COMPACTOR_ENABLED	True	Enable/disable end-of-session recap.

Requires the core Rift Vessel plugin to be enabled — otherwise no session can ever start, so there is nothing to compact.
