- **Context Compaction**: Automatic conversation history compression when approaching context limits
- **Model Pricing Display**: Shows current model pricing from OpenRouter in the header
- **Context Compaction**: Automatic conversation history compression when approaching context limits, including stale tool result compaction

# Option 1: Set environment variables
export ANCHOR_API_KEY=your_key_here
export ANCHOR_MODEL=qwen3.5-27b # optional, default: gpt-4o
# Run the application
dotnet run --project AnchorCli

# First time? The app will prompt you to run /setup
# Or run it explicitly:
dotnet run --project AnchorCli

1. **Setup**: Configure API credentials via environment variables or `/setup` command
1. **Setup**: Configure API credentials via the `/setup` command (or `anchor setup` subcommand)
2. **REPL Loop**: You interact with the AI through a conversational interface
3. **Tool Calling**: The AI can call any of the available tools to read/edit files, manage directories, or execute commands
4. **Hashline Validation**: All file edits are validated using the Hashline technique to ensure precision
