[Bug] High failure rate and repeated attempts causing rapid rate limit hits

Bug Description
for my project Claude Code seems to make a lot of attempts and very high percentage fail, either to compile or the results are not as expected, a lot of the time it seems like the same thing is tried over and over again with the exact same results. And with all this I hit limits rather quickly. Also things are often forgotten, like always tell me the files that are modified, which Claude does for a bit and then doesn't. This project has a few config files that almost never get modified. two .h and 2.cpp and a yaml file.
