Plants in containers have limited access to nutrients in their soil, and the soil can become hard and crusty. Adding compost supplies a steady source of nutrients and loosens the soil. Remove some of the old soil around the edges and fill the spaces with compost. Don't worry about disturbing the roots. Then spread a thin layer of compost on top of the soil.
