The post argues that preventing context rot is still the most important concern, even with today’s state-of-the-art models.

It frames the issue as an ongoing operational problem for AI workflows: if context degrades, model quality suffers regardless of raw capability. The point is concise, but it is a clear engineering take on how to keep long-running agent or assistant systems reliable.
