[Bug] Context limit reached prematurely despite low token usage percentage

Resolved 💬 2 comments Opened May 7, 2026 by RabbyMcSkibbity Closed Jun 5, 2026

Bug Description
It started roughly a week ago end of April. CLI continually hits context limit although I am below 20%. Issue started with version 2.1.28 running 4.5 with 1m context. Rolled back the version to 2.1.20 and it seems to have gotten worse, reached context limit at less than 16%.

  • Fresh install on new domain profile
  • Happens ~2x/day consistently
  • Context shows ~20% but triggers compaction
  • Tried versions 2.1.118 → 2.1.128, all have the issue
  • Old profile (pre-domain migration) never had this

Environment Info

  • Platform: win32
  • Terminal: vscode
  • Version: 2.1.120
  • Feedback ID: 2c4b3f8a-5747-4bc2-9593-eb7382017fde
