Consider the following when estimating the cost of your approach: - The agent passes the full history with each subsequent message. The larger context is early in the session, the more expensive each subsequent turn is. -- Unnecessary turns are generally much more expensive than other types of wasted context. An extra turn late in a session can cost > 1 million tokens vs. reading a full file, which is rarely greater than 10k tokens. +- Unnecessary turns are generally more expensive than other types of wasted context. - You can reduce context usage by limiting the outputs of tools but take care not to cause more token consumption via additional turns required to recover from a tool failure or compensate for a misapplied optimization strategy.
