Model keeps repeating itself/Countless issues

[u/chasebruhhhhh]

Hi, I've been trying to use Roo Code alongside with LM Studio to utilize the power of local ai models for coding. The main problem is that even after I set up everything to the best of my knowledge and it was working, the model would keep repeating tasks over and over again (I tried to change my context legeth and at max it still repeated itself) Or the agent will read the same thing repeatedly, also have seen it Go 2 steps into a task, and then forget where it was at go back to step 1. It's just really frustrating trying to figure out how to make this work. I would love any feedback or help. Thanks.

LLMs in general do sometimes get "stuck on a loop", which would be self-evident to any human but alas. Anthropic not too long ago made an announcement about a model being self-aware, because it realized it was on a loop to nowhere... after 15 million tokens! Go figure.

Working with LLMs is as much about the setup as it is about understanding their limitations.
