Summary
Fixes the race condition in the auto-compact extension that causes 'Compaction failed: Already compacted' errors.
Root Cause
The event handler checked then deferred via . Before the callback ran, another event (turn_start, turn_end, session_start) could trigger compaction. When the callback executed, it called without re-checking , causing a second call while one was in progress (or just completed). Pi core then threw 'Already compacted' because the last session entry was already a compaction entry.
Changes
** function**: Added defensive guards at the start:
** event handler's callback**: Added re-check of before calling , preventing the race where another event triggers compaction during the deferral window.
These are minimal, focused changes that address the exact race condition.
