-- **Library** — `compress(messages)` in Python or TypeScript, inline in any app
-- **Proxy** — `headroom proxy --port 8787`, zero code changes, any language
-- **Agent wrap** — `headroom wrap claude|codex|copilot|cursor|aider|opencode|cline|continue|goose|openhands|openclaw|vibe` in one command; undo with `headroom unwrap `
-- **MCP server** — `headroom_compress`, `headroom_retrieve`, `headroom_stats` for any MCP client
-- **Cross-agent memory** — shared store across Claude, Codex, Gemini, auto-dedup
-- **`headroom learn`** — mines failed sessions, writes corrections to `CLAUDE.local.md` (default, gitignored) or `CLAUDE.md` / `AGENTS.md` / `GEMINI.md`
-- **Output token reduction** — trims what the model *writes back* (not just what you send): drops ceremony/restated code and skips deep "thinking" on routine steps. See [Output token reduction](#output-token-reduction-cut-what-the-model-writes-back).

-To use headroom, it is recommended you launch a wrapped agent session each time so that all necessary setup is completed.

-A lot of that output is waste: "Great, let me…" preambles, re-printing code you

+上文所述内容会缩小你**发送**的 prompt。但你也要为模型**写回**的每一个 token 付费——而在 Opus 级别模型上,输出成本是输入的 5 倍。其中大量输出是浪费:比如「好的,让我来…」这类开场白、重复打印你刚展示过的代码,以及在读取文件等常规步骤上进行冗长的「思考」。
-Headroom can trim that too, from the proxy, without you changing any code:
+Headroom 也能从代理侧削减这些输出,无需你改动任何代码:
-- **Verbosity steering** — appends a short "be terse, don't restate context"
- note to the end of the system prompt (so your prompt cache still hits).
-- **Effort routing** — when a turn is just the model resuming after a tool result
- (a file read, a passing test), it dials the model's thinking effort down. New
- questions and errors keep full effort.
+- **冗长度引导(verbosity steering)** — 在 system prompt 末尾追加一条简短的「保持简洁、不要复述上下文」说明(这样你的 prompt 缓存仍能命中)。
+- **努力度路由(effort routing)** — 当某轮对话只是模型在工具结果之后继续执行时(例如读取文件、测试通过),会降低模型的思考努力度。新问题与错误仍保持全力。
-Turn it on:
+开启方式:
```bash
export HEADROOM_OUTPUT_SHAPER=1 # off by default
headroom proxy --port 8787
```
-> **Already running a proxy?** These switches are read *live* on every request,
-> so a proxy that `headroom wrap` **reused** (rather than started) would not see
-> a value you export afterwards — its environment was snapshotted at launch.
-> `headroom wrap` now hot-syncs your current settings to the running proxy via a
-> loopback `POST /admin/runtime-env`, so they take effect immediately with **no
-> restart** (no cold start, no dropped requests, no lost caches). Set them before
-> you `wrap`. On a shared proxy these overrides are global — the last explicit
-> setting wins.
+> **已经在运行代理?** 这些开关在每次请求时都会*实时*读取,因此若代理是 `headroom wrap` **复用**(而非重新启动),则不会看到你之后 export 的值——其环境在启动时已被快照。`headroom wrap` 现在会通过 loopback `POST /admin/runtime-env` 将你当前的设置热同步到正在运行的代理,因此可**无需重启**立即生效(无冷启动、无请求中断、无缓存丢失)。请在你 `wrap` 之前设置它们。在共享代理上,这些覆盖是全局的——以最后一次显式设置为准。

-### GitHub Copilot CLI subscription mode

-Headroom can route GitHub Copilot CLI subscription traffic through the local proxy:
+Headroom 可将 GitHub Copilot CLI 订阅流量路由到本地代理:
```bash
headroom copilot-auth login
headroom wrap copilot --subscription -- --model gpt-4o
```
-This lets Headroom intercept OpenAI-compatible Copilot CLI requests and apply the same proxy compression pipeline before forwarding to GitHub Copilot's hosted API. The wrapper exchanges Headroom's reusable GitHub OAuth token for Copilot's short-lived API token and prints the upstream endpoint as `COPILOT_PROVIDER_API_URL=...` during launch.
+这样 Headroom 可拦截 OpenAI 兼容的 Copilot CLI 请求,在转发至 GitHub Copilot 托管 API 之前应用相同的代理压缩流水线。该包装器会用 Headroom 可复用的 GitHub OAuth token 换取 Copilot 的短期 API token,并在启动时将上游端点打印为 `COPILOT_PROVIDER_API_URL=...`。
-`headroom copilot-auth login` stores a Headroom-specific Copilot OAuth token.
-This avoids relying on generic GitHub or Copilot CLI tokens that can read
-Copilot account metadata but may still be rejected by Copilot's token-exchange
-endpoint.
+`headroom copilot-auth login` 会存储 Headroom 专用的 Copilot OAuth token。
+这可避免依赖通用的 GitHub 或 Copilot CLI token——它们虽可读取 Copilot 账户元数据,但仍可能被 Copilot 的 token 交换端点拒绝。
-For GitHub Enterprise Server or custom-domain Copilot deployments, set the
-deployment domain before launching:
+对于 GitHub Enterprise Server 或自定义域名的 Copilot 部署,请在启动前设置部署域名:
```bash
export GITHUB_COPILOT_ENTERPRISE_DOMAIN=ghe.example.com
```
-For GitHub.com Enterprise Cloud URLs such as
-`github.com/enterprises/your-enterprise`, do not set an enterprise-domain
-override. Headroom uses GitHub's normal token-exchange endpoint and the Copilot
-API endpoint advertised for the signed-in account.
+对于 `github.com/enterprises/your-enterprise` 这类 GitHub.com Enterprise Cloud URL,
+请勿设置 enterprise-domain 覆盖。Headroom 会使用 GitHub 的正常 token 交换端点,以及为已登录账户公布的 Copilot API 端点。
-Platform support note: macOS auth reuse via Copilot CLI Keychain storage has been smoke-tested. Windows Credential Manager, Linux Secret Service / `secret-tool`, and Docker/CI token-injection paths are implemented or planned as auth-discovery paths, but still need real OS validation before they should be considered fully vetted. For Docker and CI, prefer passing an explicit `GITHUB_COPILOT_TOKEN` or `GITHUB_COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN` rather than relying on host keychain access.
+平台支持说明:通过 Copilot CLI Keychain 存储在 macOS 上复用认证已通过冒烟测试。Windows Credential Manager、Linux Secret Service / `secret-tool`,以及 Docker/CI token 注入路径已实现或规划中作为认证发现路径,但在经过真实操作系统验证之前,仍不应视为已完全验证。对于 Docker 与 CI,建议显式传入 `GITHUB_COPILOT_TOKEN` 或 `GITHUB_COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN`,而非依赖主机钥匙串访问。

-> **Attribution.** Headroom ships with the excellent [RTK](https://github.com/rtk-ai/rtk) binary for shell-output rewriting — `git show --short`, scoped `ls`, summarized installers. Huge thanks to the RTK team; their tool is a first-class part of our stack, and Headroom compresses everything downstream of it. Headroom can also use [lean-ctx](https://github.com/yvgude/lean-ctx) as the selected CLI context tool; set `HEADROOM_CONTEXT_TOOL=lean-ctx` before running `headroom wrap ...`.
