i sort of love how LLM comments sometimes tell entire stories that nobody asked. claude code even has specific system prompt language for this, but they always end up making comments about what something used to do like "now we do x instead of y" like... ok? that is why i am reading current version of code!

so claude code is just not capable of rescuing itself from its own context - if an entry in its context window throws an error, it just keep throwing that error forever until you clear it. good stuff.

(and, of course we read the entire file before checking this, rather than just reading the first 5 bytes)
