It is deterministic and runs no model: no inference cost, no extra latency, and nothing that can hallucinate. The core layers ( L1–L3 ) are lossless — decompress() returns the input byte-for-byte. A separate L4 layer is opt-in, budgeted, and explicitly lossy. It pays off on repetitive or tabular data — JSON records, logs, CSV — and does not help everything: small deeply-nested config objects can come out larger (measured +25% on one 160-line config), and prose with no repetition is passed through unchanged. pakt inspect / pakt auto tell you whether a payload is worth compressing before you commit. Illustrative best case (small, highly repetitive input); typical JSON savings run 27–33% — see the table. What it saves (and where it doesn't) Savings are content-dependent.
