   I have an implementation using the experimental.chat.messages.transform event. I am still working on it and will opensource it at some point. However, I think if the community would come up with a set of requirements, we can set up a project to release it as a plugin.

   Note that you don't need this to be an internal tool. The plugin system is quite capable of doing this.

   The more session/context manipulation you do the more you break the provider prompt cache.

   Fine with the very few providers that don't tie their usage limits to tokens consumed, absolutely devastating with the rest of them.

   The former are offering these subs like that mostly because they assume their caching system will make it cost-efficient for them (watch them change their minds). The latter have already identified this and are only approximating how many requests you can send, while in reality counting your token consumption.

   Hope I'm making sense. Unloading stuff from context isn't always the best idea.
