UnverifiedSome models, when the context window is limited, quietly truncate or compress earlier conversation content.77% similarVerifiedEven models with a million-token context face an attention dilution problem when handling large codebases—when the context is too long, the model's attention to early content drops significantly.76% similarUnverifiedsoul.md和user.md配置文件写得过于冗长会在每轮对话开始时预消耗大量token，导致模型能处理的实际对话内容减少74% similarUnverifiedThe description of every Skill permanently occupies limited context window space, and overly long descriptions crowd out the space the agent needs to understand code and generate replies, actually degrading output quality.73% similarUnverifiedIn coding agent scenarios, a context window that is too small will miss key dependencies and cause changes to break other modules; a window that is too large introduces irrelevant files, dilutes attention, and drives up cost and latency.73% similar
