Why your context keeps dying (and your bill keeps growing)

Your six-hour session is why the answers got worse.

Not the model,
not the prompt,
not the update they shipped last week 🧠

Context is a desk, not a filing cabinet. Everything sitting on it gets read again on every single message you send. The file you opened by mistake. The approach you abandoned. The three wrong fixes before the right one.

All of it, re-read, every turn. That is why long sessions cost more AND think worse.

The fix is a handful of habits: start fresh far more often than you do, point at files instead of pasting them, send the messy reading out to a subagent, keep the stable stuff at the top.

I wrote the whole thing up. Free, no email wall.
