It’s a good idea to have Claude write down the execution plan (including todos). Or you can use something like Linear / GH Issues to track the big items. Then small/tactical todos are what you track in session todos.

This approach means you can just kill the session and restart if you hit limits.

(If you hit context limits you probably also want to look into sub-agents to help prevent context bloat. For example any time you are running and debugging unit tests, it’s usually best to start with a subagent to handle the easy errors. )
