I don't want a nudge. I want a clear RED WARNING with "You've gone away from your computer a bit too long and chatted too much at the coffee machine. You're better off starting a new context!"

I don’t want a scary red message chastising me for not being responsive enough!

I often leave CC hanging (or even suspended) and use /resume a lot. I’m okay with that having some negative effect on my token limits.

Product design is hard. They can’t please us all. I don’t envy the team considering these trade offs.

Why is nobody even asking why that should be an issue? No other text editor shits the bed that way. The whole point of the computer is that it patiently waits for my input.

forget the warning, just compact like someone suggested in the ticket. Who would opt for a massive cache miss?
