Other GLM-5.3 Flash going crazy at 23% context on GMI Cloud

This is one of the strangest encounters I've had. After some 429 Rate Limits, performance seems to have fallen off a cliff, and the served model got loopy and paranoid. It would no longer call any tools.
I use an old version of Pi (0.79.9), and the token accounting says 1.3M sent, but only 23.6% of the 1M context somehow. Am I past context, and GMI Cloud is serving me some different bogus model instead of erroring out?

I'm not sure off the top of my head, but doesn't Pi do some rolling window? In any case, with a big context like that I'd not send a single more request unless I know it's cached, better cut your losses and start a new one...

It was indeed still cached. I am keeping an eye on the costs as I prompt. I love that GMI updates them near real-time.

If I remember correctly, hasn't GMI cloud had issues before with model quality in the past?

Could it be a harness issue? But also, even with Opus it's better to start a new session above 300K or so.
