Pretty much, I stopped using Claude for that reason, I shouldn't have to keep track of the context of the model all the time. And god forbid I don't, the amount of time I've lost to Claude just sending it and then lying is not worth it when 5.5 will just do stuff, compact 2-3 times in the task and still not go insane.

This whole 1 million context window is a lie after 300k Claude degrades to unusable, and compact doesnt help. I've had Codex tabs open for weeks, I have to regularly restart Claude.
