Advanced Features
This chapter delves into Supermemory's underlying mechanisms and advanced configuration options. You will learn how to optimize the memory engine's performance and customize plugin behavior according to your project needs.
Chapter Contents
Proactive Compaction Mechanism
Gain a deep understanding of the automatic compression mechanism triggered by Token thresholds. Learn how Supermemory proactively generates structured summaries and persists them before context overflow, preventing "memory loss" issues during long sessions.
In-Depth Configuration
Customize compression thresholds, keyword triggering rules, and search parameters. Master all configuration file options to make Supermemory perfectly adapt to your workflow.

└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘Recommended Sequence:
- First learn compaction principles: Understand how Supermemory automatically manages context—this is the foundation for advanced configuration.
- Then learn configuration details: Only after understanding the mechanism can you make reasonable configuration decisions (e.g., what threshold value is appropriate).
Prerequisites
Before You Begin
