<#
.SYNOPSIS
    PreCompact hook that anchors the session on disk before context is truncated.
.DESCRIPTION
    Reads the VS Code PreCompact hook payload from standard input and writes a
    timestamped checkpoint to `.memory-bank/session/`, capturing the compaction
    trigger, the transcript location, and the repository state at the moment of
    truncation.
 
    Post-flight is an end-of-turn gate, so a long turn that is compacted mid-run
    never reaches it and everything learned in that turn is discarded with the
    conversation. The checkpoint is the durable anchor the next context can read
    instead. PreCompact supports the common output format only, so this hook
    cannot inject context into the model directly; Pre-flight carries the
    matching read rule, and Instructions are re-sent with every request.
.PARAMETER InputJson
    Hook payload as JSON. Defaults to reading standard input. Tests pass the
    payload directly so they do not depend on redirected input.
.NOTES
    Never blocks compaction: every failure path still exits 0. Writes nothing
    when the workspace has no Memory Bank, because creating one is reserved for
    a durable repository write under the memory-bank Skill.

## Resume protocol
 
1. Do not trust a summary of pending or completed work. It was produced by the
   truncation that created this file.
2. Re-read ``.memory-bank/index.md`` and re-apply its routes before the next edit;
   the files read earlier in this session are no longer in context.
3. Re-read from disk any Prompt, Instruction, or Skill that was driving the run.
4. Compare the repository state above against ``git status`` before continuing, and
   resume from the first unfinished item rather than from memory.
5. Delete this file once the work it anchors is closed out.
