Background and Context

Epic #8084 (Advanced Context Strategies & LLM Backend Extensions) requires dynamic budget allocation based on task complexity. The current ACMS pipeline uses a static token budget for context assembly, which means simple tasks over-consume context budget while complex tasks may be starved of the context they need.

A dynamic budget allocation algorithm analyzes task complexity signals (prompt length, referenced file count, plan depth, historical token usage) and adjusts the context budget accordingly. This ensures efficient use of the LLM's context window across diverse task types.

This issue blocks Epic #8084.

Acceptance Criteria

  • DynamicBudgetAllocator class is implemented with a configurable complexity scoring function
  • Complexity signals include: prompt token count, referenced file count, plan step count, and historical average
  • Budget allocation is bounded by a configurable min/max range
  • The allocator integrates with the existing ContextAssembler pipeline
  • Unit tests achieve >= 97% coverage
  • Integration test demonstrates budget variation across simple vs. complex tasks

Subtasks

  • Design DynamicBudgetAllocator interface and complexity signal schema
  • Implement complexity scoring function (weighted linear combination of signals)
  • Implement budget clamping (min/max bounds from config)
  • Wire DynamicBudgetAllocator into ContextAssembler as an optional pre-step
  • Add configuration schema for allocator weights and bounds
  • Write unit tests for scoring function and budget clamping
  • Write integration test comparing static vs. dynamic allocation

Definition of Done

  • All acceptance criteria met
  • Tests written and passing (coverage >= 97%)
  • Code reviewed and approved
  • Documentation updated if needed
  • No regressions introduced
