## Description
Sync the docs with the code after the live-zone realignment. The
`IntelligentContextManager` (ICM), `RollingWindow`, and scoring modules
were deleted in PR #350 (May 2026), but the README and benchmark
docstrings still advertised them as live, and an example still imported
the deleted module (broken on run). This fixes the README + benchmarks
and removes the dead example.
I validated the README against the code with three parallel
static-analysis sub-agents (features/architecture,
CLI/extras/wrap-matrix, public API/integrations). Most of the README
checked out accurate; only the items below were stale/wrong.
Closes #
## Type of Change
- [ ] Bug fix (non-breaking change that fixes an issue)
- [ ] New feature (non-breaking change that adds functionality)
- [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing
functionality to change)
- [x] Documentation update
- [ ] Performance improvement
- [ ] Code refactoring (no functional changes)
## Changes Made
- README: removed the `IntelligentContext` bullet and
`IntelligentContext / RollingWindow` from the transforms list (both
deleted in PR #350).
- README: standardized `Kompress-base` -> `Kompress-v2-base` to match
the HF model id `chopratejas/kompress-v2-base` and the existing badges
(diagram re-aligned).
- README: corrected the CodeCompressor language list to match the
`CodeLanguage` enum (added TS, C, Perl).
- README: softened the unanchored "6 algorithms" tagline to
"content-aware compressors".
- README: Cortex Code is library-mode only — there is no `headroom wrap
cortex`, so the compatibility-matrix row no longer shows a wrap
checkmark.
- Deleted `examples/test_intelligent_context_toin_ccr.py` — it imported
the deleted `IntelligentContextManager` (ImportError on run) and is
unreferenced.
- Removed stale `RollingWindow` mentions from benchmark
docstrings/comments (`benchmarks/__init__.py`, `bench_transforms.py`,
`bench_latency.py`, `scenarios/conversations.py`); the accurate PR-B1
retirement comment is kept.
## Testing
- [ ] Unit tests pass (`pytest`) — N/A, docs/docstring + example
deletion only
- [x] Linting passes — `ruff check` clean on all changed benchmark files
- [ ] Type checking passes — N/A (no type-relevant changes)
- [ ] New tests added — N/A
- [x] Manual testing performed — see Real Behavior Proof
### Test Output
```text
$ ruff check benchmarks/__init__.py benchmarks/bench_transforms.py benchmarks/bench_latency.py benchmarks/scenarios/conversations.py
All checks passed!
# stale refs remaining in README/benchmarks (excluding accurate retirement notes):
$ grep -rn "IntelligentContext|RollingWindow|Kompress-base" README.md benchmarks/ | grep -v retire
(only benchmarks/bench_transforms.py:362 — the accurate PR-B1 retirement comment)
# deleted example is unreferenced anywhere:
$ grep -rn "test_intelligent_context_toin_ccr" --include=*.md --include=*.yml --include=*.py .
(no hits)
```
## Real Behavior Proof
- Environment: macOS (darwin, arm64), Python 3.12 `.venv`, ruff 0.14.x,
repo at branch `docs/sync-readme-with-code` off latest `main`.
- Exact command / steps: (1) three parallel sub-agents
grep/Read-validated README claims vs `headroom/`, `pyproject.toml`,
`sdk/typescript/`; (2) directly verified each flagged mismatch
(`CodeLanguage` enum, `HF_MODEL_ID`, absence of
`IntelligentContext`/`RollingWindow` classes); (3) confirmed the example
imports a deleted module and is unreferenced; (4) `ruff check` on
changed benchmark files; (5) re-grepped README + benchmarks for any
remaining stale refs.
- Observed result: README and benchmark docstrings now match the code;
the only surviving `RollingWindow` string is the accurate retirement
comment; the broken example is removed; ruff passes; the ASCII
architecture diagram still aligns after the `Kompress-v2-base` rename.
- Not tested: rendering of the README on GitHub/PyPI (text-only change);
the separate `docs/content/` and `wiki/` doc sets (see Additional Notes
— out of scope for this PR).

## Additional Notes
**Larger related finding (NOT in this PR):** the published docs site
(`docs/content/docs/*.mdx`) and the `wiki/*.md` set still document
`IntelligentContextManager`, `RollingWindow`, `RollingWindowConfig`,
`IntelligentContextConfig`, and `ScoringWeights` as live API — with
`from headroom import RollingWindow` / `from headroom.transforms import
IntelligentContextManager` code examples that would `ImportError`. It is
half-migrated (a couple of `.mdx` files already note "removed in 0.9.x"
while neighbors still teach it as current). This is ~15 files and the
fixes require rewriting examples to the live-zone model, not just
deletions — recommended as a focused follow-up PR rather than bundling
it here.
Address user-reported UX gaps across the CLI surface:
- code-aware: add --code-aware/--no-code-aware (+ HEADROOM_CODE_AWARE_ENABLED env)
to the Click CLI. PR #411 had added these only to the orphaned argparse main;
the user-facing CLI couldn't reach the flag. Banner status text "remove
--no-code-aware to enable" referenced a flag that didn't exist — fix to point
at the actual flag/env. Surface code-aware in the click banner and add
print_banner=False plumbing to run_server so the click path doesn't print
two banners back-to-back.
- --mode: hide alias clutter via metavar=[token|cache] and rewrite help to
lead with the two real modes. Legacy aliases (token_mode/token_savings/...)
still validate.
- perf --hours: was documented but ignored. Records are now actually filtered,
the report shows the actual time-range covered, and the count of records
filtered out (so users can tell when raising --hours helps).
- perf TOIN: replace the hash-keyed pattern dump with a strategy-distribution
view + recommendation-eligibility from the live store — actionable signal
rather than opaque rows.
- code-graph: clarify in --help that it indexes cwd / project root.
- wrap: spell out supported tools, wrap-vs-proxy distinction, and that
`headroom wrap opencode` isn't a thing (use `proxy` directly for opencode;
openclaw is not opencode).
- mcp: note that mcp__headroom__headroom_retrieve is correct MCP namespacing,
not a doubled-prefix bug. Renaming would break the proxy's tool injection.
- LLMLingua cleanup: remove [llmlingua] extra from pyproject (no live code
uses it). Delete wiki/llmlingua.md and clean retired flag/class references
in 6 other wiki pages. Point at [ml] (Kompress) where ML compression is
documented.
- init -g openclaw: strip mcpServers from existing plugin entries before
re-writing — newer openclaw schemas reject it, leaving stale entries from
older installs unhealable. Pinned with regression test.
Tests: mock_run_server signatures in two existing tests accept **kwargs
(needed for the new print_banner plumbing). New test for the openclaw
mcpServers strip. Full suite: 4847 passed, 262 skipped, 0 failed.
