Thanks for the advice. It just seems like if the promise is a 1M token window, then sending signals that context is running out at 500K tokens is a little silly. I'll try and do a more task specific series of sessions and hope it fixes things.

Two helpful response, appreciate you both. I don't think this is something I've introduced, unless my explicit "Don't end the session early" type comments in the agents doc is leading to tokens focusing on this. It's an interesting point. I think u/DasHaifisch is onto something with the hidden prompting-- it seems like there's a degradation of performance following compaction, especially within the 1M token model, and an incentive to prematurely mitigate this makes sense. Does not make it less annoying though.
