Running out of context on a large codebase: how to auto-handoff long-running local LLM tasks
Developer-Y · reddit · 2026-09-12
A developer running Qwen 3 27B locally on Ubuntu with ROCm (300K context at Q4, 200K at Q6) keeps exhausting the context window mid-task on a large codebase. They want an automated flow: when context hits 80%, generate a handover document and spin up a new session from it so work continues unattended — currently done manually in the deepseek harness and opencode. The post asks whether any existing harness or agentic framework supports automatic context handoff.
