It doesn't break the cache. The raw data never enters the conversation history, so there's nothing to invalidate. A short summary goes into context instead of the full payload, and the model can search the full data from a local FTS5 index if it needs specifics later. Cache stays intact because you're just appending smaller messages to the conversation.
