  • No implementation details leak into specification

Resolution Summary

FR-013 - Token/Message Limits

Decision: Implement soft limits with user prompts

Selected Option: Warn developers when conversation history approaches a reasonable limit (e.g., 50 messages or 80% of model context) and offer options to save the session or clear history.

Rationale: This approach balances user experience with system stability. Developers get a warning before potential issues occur and can make informed decisions about their session.

Status: ✅ COMPLETE

All specification quality criteria have been validated and passed. The specification is ready for the next phase (clarification, planning, or implementation).
