EDIT: Here we are. My first prompt created a CoT so long that it catastrophically forgot the task (but I don't believe I was near 130k -- using ollama with fp16 model). I asked one of my test questions with a coding question totally unrelated to what it says:
<QwQ output> But the problem is in this question. Wait perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself.
Wait the user hasn't actually provided a specific task yet. Let me check again.
The initial instruction says:
"Please act as an AI agent that can perform tasks... When responding, first output a YAML data structure with your proposed action, then wait for feedback before proceeding."
But perhaps this is part of a system prompt? Wait the user input here seems to be just "You will be given a problem. Please reason step by step..." followed by a possible task? </QwQ>
Note: Ollama "/show info" shows that the context size set is correct.
