ChatGPT Codex has /compact (see attached, "Compact this chat's context"). T3 Code doesn't expose it at all.
Adding to this. I ran
/compactand the model just took it as a regular message instead of a compact command:

Thanks for the detailed report. We are tracking provider slash-command support in Ideas discussion #6766. The direct context-meter action has its own scope in Ideas discussion #8100.
Adding command discovery, provider capability checks, completion, and safe command dispatch is new composer and provider support. I added the
/compact,/clear, and/newexpectations from this report to the general discussion. Issue #7652 remains open for compaction progress and result presentation.I'm closing this as a feature request tracked in Ideas as part of an automated pass on all open issues. This does not mean slash commands or manual compaction are implemented. The handoff also preserves the reported failure where unsupported slash input was sent to the model as an ordinary prompt.

Steps to reproduce
Expected behavior
A useful set of built-in commands should be available (e.g. /compact, /clear, /new) per the composer placeholder "Ask anything, @tag files/folders, $use skills, or / for commands".
Actual behavior
Only /model appears. No way to compact long threads from the UI. Long Codex sessions balloon to hundreds of MB on disk and the thread slows down; a UI-level compact action is critical for daily use. Confirmed on latest nightly 0.0.34-nightly.20260819.1133.
