It's not a context issue so much as a focus issue. The agent will complete part of a task and then ask if I want it to continue. Even if I told it I want it to keep going until all tasks are complete. Using a wrapper deals with that behavior.
Most projects I do take 20 minutes or less for an agent to complete and those don't need a wrapper. But for longer tasks, like hours or days, it gets distracted.
Damn, what kind of tasks are you making your agents work on that takes days???
Claude Code has been working 24/7 for the past 4 days on creating a private server for a dead video game. It managed to get login, chat, inventory, and a few other features working. I provided it tools like Ghidra and x64dbg and pywinauto. Progress is slow but incremental. Each day new bits work that didn't before.
