stash_context tool

Tool: stash_context

Park a large blob (a whole file, a long command or test output, a generated report) out of the conversation and get back a short handle. Nothing is lost: the full content is written to disk and remains re-fetchable with recall. This is the most direct lever on context-window size.

Arguments Schema

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
repo_path	string	Required	Absolute path to the workspace root.
content	string	Required	The large text to stash out of context.
label	string	Optional	Optional short label describing the content.

Tool Input JSONRequest

{
  "repo_path": "/path/to/repo",
  "content": "<5,000 lines of build log>",
  "label": "ci-build-log"
}

Tool Response JSONResponse

Stashed "ci-build-log" -> a1b2c3d4e5f6 (~18000 tokens kept out of context). Read only what you need with recall(source="a1b2c3d4e5f6", query=...).

Developer Best Practices

Stash large output instead of pasting it inline, where it would be re-cached every turn.
Then use recall with the handle to pull back only the slice you actually need.
