  "textContent": "Thanks Mate, I really appreciate that.\n\nThe big shift for me was treating long runs as production workflows rather than single chat sessions.\n\nAt a high level, I persist project state outside the prompt path, then bring back only the active working context needed for the next step. That lets the system continue across larger runs without constantly replaying everything that happened before.\n\nSo the pattern is basically: durable project state, managed run progress, reviewable outputs, and selective context rehydration when needed.\n\nThat has been one of the biggest unlocks for cost control and repeatability.",
