@santi@gone.lema.org I basically do short runs with a fresh context each time. It is a must for a Local LLM where the maximum context is about 128-256k in size. here is a sample prompt: `read AGENTS.md, Spec.md, and todo.md. Read entire source files when doing edits. Do ONE ITEM in the todo.md list that you think is most important. After doing that ONE ITEM check off the item in todo.md, commit the change to git along with todo.md. Think about if there are other very important tasks that should be added to the todo.md. if there is, add them and commit. Now you're done. We are only doing ONE ITEM and adding to todo.md if really needed.` This is my version of a 'Ralph loop'.

    @bryan@dusty.ninja It's amusing how agents.md tend to be a collection of "don't do that stupid thing. Don't do that stupid other thing either." I am still trying to find the correct words to avoid the thing trying to rewrite different code paths when something isn't working.
