The person had “minecraft.py” in their context and the session context was very long.

Having an LLM session with very long context occasionally go off on a tangent is not uncommon. The people who expect absolute perfection out of every LLM interaction see this as some total indictment of the entire technology, but the people who use these tools daily have learned to treat the output as partially stochastic and to avoid extremely long context, even if the model offers it. It’s best to compact strategically or summarize next steps to hand off to a new session. Using sub-sessions can also reduce context pollution at the cost of additional token expenditure to summarize and transfer data to and from the sub-session.
