It is crucial for my project that I am warned shortly before the conversation context window limit has been surpassed to be able to create a handoff for the new conversation where I continue the same project. Alternatively, please add a function that automatically summarizes the content of the conversation and prompts the LLM with this summary package so the user can continue in the same conversation without having to himself phrase an elaborate handoff-package-prompt.
I think the issue is it cannot predict it as it depends on the size of your upcoming prompt
But an approximate % would be useful say when you near 90% you slow down and ask for a hand off
fair! but adding an auto-compacting function as we see in the coding agents might be doable I suppose
Welcome to the community, @Sakushey. This is a useful request, especially for long-running projects where losing context can make continuity difficult.
Good point from @Slavax as well. Since the next prompt size can affect when the context limit is reached, an exact warning may be difficult, but an approximate indicator or early warning could still help.
We’re sending this to the team for logging: a context-usage warning near the limit, plus an option to automatically create a handoff summary so work can continue smoothly in a new conversation.
We appreciate and value your feedback. While we can’t promise implementation or provide a timeline, we’re grateful you shared it with us. We’re closing this topic while keeping it visible for reference.
