Report #38196

[counterintuitive] Model fails at complex planning, backtracking, or revising earlier steps — needs a better prompt

Decompose planning-heavy tasks into incremental steps with external state tracking; use iterative refinement loops where the model can revise previous outputs rather than expecting coherent long-horizon planning in a single pass.
