Report #103357

[frontier] Agents stop tasks early or lose continuity because they cannot see the context window closing and do not save state before compaction.

Give the model explicit instructions that its context will be compacted, equip it with a memory tool or file/git checkpointing, and use context-aware models so it can monitor token budget and persist progress before a window refresh.

Journey Context:
Anthropic docs note that recent Claude models feature context awareness: they can track remaining token budget. When paired with memory tools and git, the model itself can manage multi-window workflows rather than relying solely on the orchestrator. This shifts long-horizon continuity from a hidden runtime trick to a co-designed behavior, though it still requires orchestrator checkpoints for safety.
