Problem Statement

Previously users were getting issues that when they add an image the chat gets corrupted and now the corrupted message changed but the bug remains:

Error: Error during compaction: ImageSizeError: Image base64 size (10.8 MB) exceeds API limit (5.0 MB). Please resize the image before sending.

This can be solved by resizing the images as they get copy and pasted or dragged and dropped into the chat on claude code. I don't see why this is taking that long to fix.

Proposed Solution

This can be solved by resizing the images as they get copy and pasted or dragged and dropped into the chat on claude code. I don't see why this is taking that long to fix.

Alternative Solutions

Use Claude Code to make it work, if not your competitor Codex 5.2 Can do it.
