lcc is a local context compiler that compacts Claude Code session transcripts without summarizing them, using verbatim retention of messages and stashing removed tool outputs for hash-checked recall. It offers rule-based and local ranked providers plus an MCP server, backed by detailed token-reduction measurements and a pre-registered evaluation showing preserved file-recall performance at lower token cost.

Target audience: AI coding agent users, backend devs, devops
