The terrifying thing is that LLMs turn "technical debt" into "synthetic debt" that accumulates in real-time.
When we use an agent that lacks a native way to consolidate its own context, we essentially force it to generate these 10-year-old hack-filled codebases by design. We’re over-engineering the "container" (the CLI logic) to babysit a "leaky" context.
If the architecture doesn't start treating long-term memory as a first-class citizen, we’re just going to see more of these 500k-line "safety nets" masking the underlying fragility of the agents.
