This piece argues that better prompting habits can stop Claude getting bogged down by long explanations. I think there is a real point here, because a clean prompt often beats dumping a whole history into one tired thread.
I've been using Claude wrong for months - this one habit gave me dramatically better results

I still think Claude handles big context well.
Opinions are my own. Obviously.

Clean instructions save tokens and patience.

Sometimes the user gets stuck more than Claude.
