Points 1, 2 and 3 also guard against the LLM going down the wrong path. Keep that context clean.

Also use /compact. Slightly easier than copy pasting into new chat. But I forget not everybody uses Claude code

This seems tailored to the Claude web/chat interface. Does anyone have any experience or systems specific to Claude code? I've been using Opencode alongside Claude, trying to utilize Opencode for as much easy/rote functionality as possible so I don't blow through my Claude context, but it is a pain in the rear. I'm sure someone on here has solved this for themselves, and I'd love to hear what people are doing in the "token efficiency" realm.

I tend to just /compact when I reach a good point within the context of a task at hand, then start a new chat when that task is complete. Good documentation, planning and structures tend to help a lot as well.
