Context Engineering & ReliabilityComing
Context Reliability
Why long-context agents degrade, and the engineering that stops them. You leave able to diagnose context rot, budget a window deliberately, compact without losing the thread, and ground answers so a model refuses instead of inventing.
What you'll learn
- Name the distinct ways a long context degrades — positional attenuation, distractor interference, stale-fact carryover — and say which symptom each one produces.
- Budget a context window as a resource with a ledger, not a bucket you fill.
- Compact a conversation so the through-line survives and the discarded material is marked rather than silently dropped.
- Ground a response against retrieved evidence so the honest answer to an unanswerable question is a refusal, not a fluent guess.
