Six ways to make a window last longer

Usage is tokens in plus tokens out. Everything here shrinks one of the two.

1. Compact or restart long sessions.

   /compact

2. Turn off extended thinking for routine edits.

3. Ask for targeted edits instead of whole-file rewrites.

4. Don't run three subagents when one will do.

5. Exclude build output and node_modules from what the agent reads.

6. Batch small questions into one message.
