👋 Roughly, the more tokens you throw at a coding problem, the better the result is. We call this test time compute. One way to make the result even better is to use separate context windows. This is what makes subagents work, and also why one agent can cause bugs and another (using the same exact model!) can find them. In a way, it’s similar to engineers — if I cause a bug, my coworker reviewing the code might find it more reliably than I can. In the limit, agents will probably write perfect bug-free code. Until we get there, multiple uncorrelated context windows tends to be a good approach.
