I’m mildly irritated because I’m optimized for writing code and querying databases, not being a search engine for Polish politics.
Sounds like the Claude Code persona is quite different from its regular persona! Seems kind of concerning. I wonder if anyone’s researched how Claude’s behavior changes when it’s in its coding harness.
I’ll take that metaphorical bet (though it sounds hard to operationalize a precise real one). I’d guess this is due to context filling up with one thing and the momentum of changing to something else—I expect you’ll see it deep in any highly rich context if switching to another topic and that there is much less dependence on coding harness than on user-request momentum. I would at the moment make no claim that this is fine nor particularly terrible, might turn out to be enough momentum to be a big problem but doesn’t immediately sound like it’d cause a topic lockup so severe that topic switch is impossible.
