Context is inventory — know when to restock
Most tools tell you how many tokens you spent. Session Watcher tells you whether the current context is still worth carrying.

Based on the EOQ model — "Context Is Inventory", Cheng 2026
A real-time position gauge on the cost U-curve. Optimal at the sweet spot; bill premium signals WATCH at 10%, RESTART at 25%. The model measures; you decide.
vs. post-hoc: "your session yesterday cost $4.20"Per-path token attribution shows exactly which files, skills, and tools are eating context. Check what to keep, uncheck what to discard. The rebuild cost is the number you negotiate against.
vs. opaque: "200k tokens used" (but from where?)One click captures your selected paths + working state as a handoff package. Next session loads it in one command — only what you chose is rebuilt — no blind re-read of the whole working set.
vs. manual: re-read everything, re-explain the task, lose 10 min
