However, there is one additional thing you can do, which is all of these sessions are just files, right?
Like the session is a large, large file on your computer.
which is something that the Droid can actually access.
So if you really wanted to know what was the first user message that I sent at the beginning of the session, Droid will just grep the first user message in the session that it's inside of, right?
So there's also the ability to access previous messages in a fully lossless way, right?
And so I think that the practical implication is one, we really want people to not need to think about context in the way that they do today.
With many coding agents, there's like an anxiety that's created by users by seeing their...
context fill up is like you know they they see it coming close to compaction they get stressed they're like oh how do i change my my behavior in order to either not let it compact or i need to wrap up the task quickly um and we think that that's like the wrong way to think about these things you should just be able to interact and interact and interact
and solve a task over an arbitrary period of time.
And so I think that one thing that's nice about this increased quality is our users can feel it.
I think we hear from a lot of people, you know, I don't even need to think about context or compression when I'm using Droid because it sort of abstracts it away.
And we don't even like put the context, you know, percentage in the tool.
We might actually give you the ability to view it if you'd like to, but we don't put it intentionally because our sort of philosophy here is,
It doesn't matter.
You don't need to worry about that anymore.
Exactly.
You don't need to worry about that anymore.
So I think the practical implication is it takes away a very annoying part of using a coding agent and just makes it feel like you can keep going.
I think this is probably one of the more interesting things about software development agents.
You know, it really seems like maybe the best general agent is just a software development agent, right?
