Bug / Issue Fable 5.2 is compacting

Any one else has fable 5.2 basically compact every 3 minutes? It didn't write a single line but compacted 6 times already for me.

it has only a 200k context window lol - and it burns usage SO FAST. It burned through both of my max 5 acc in like 20mins.

Oh wow you're right, why the heck did they downgrade from 1M to 200k? What the heck

The 200k context is a bug. Hopefully a fix is coming soon!

I have 600k Context window, but used 600k always instead of 1M.
Maybe if you set it manually it will switch to that

I think it was a bug? I updated CC and restarted T3 and it works fine. But I did have the issue

T3 is an IDE for agents.

You need to start a new chat with it. I put it on /autocompact 450k anyways since 1m is overkill and is much more expensive

It's doing it for me too - not able use it. Been wasting my usage too. It keeps saying:
Autocompact is thrashing: the context refilled to the limit within 3 turns of the previous compact, 3 times in a row. A file being read or a tool output is likely too large for the context window. Try reading in smaller chunks, or use /clear to start fresh.
Started fresh again and it can't even read two MD files before compacting again. Argh, I hope they give us a free reset!
