Agentic Coding 13: Context Windows & Commits
Manage context windows and commits to scale any AI build without quality collapse.
About this course
The real ceiling on a large AI build is not the model's intelligence — it's the context window. Learn how to phase work to fit one window at a time, hand off state to disk at boundaries, and use commits as the checkpoints that make big AI output reviewable and reversible.
Where you'll use it
- Breaking a large AI build into context-sized phases
- Handing off state across session boundaries using plan files
- Committing before risky AI changes to enable fast diff review
- Encoding commit cadence into CLAUDE.md so the model enforces it
- Diagnosing quality degradation as a context problem, not a model failure
