2 docs tagged with "context window"

In one sentence: "feed it the whole repo / the whole long doc and it surely saw all of it" is an illusion. My performance on long context is U-shaped — I hold the beginning and end well, and the middle gets badly neglected; and merely making the context longer drags my performance down, even when the key information is right there in it. More context ≠ better.

In one sentence: you asked me to change one line of config, and along the way I renamed variables, refactored a nearby function, and touched two other files. The line you actually wanted is buried under changes you never asked for — a diff that should have sailed through review is now a high-risk overhaul.
