this jumped out at me too. What counts as "abandoned"? How do you know the goal was not simply met?

I have longer threads that I don't want to pollute with side quests. I will pull up multiple other chats and ask one or two questions about completely tangential or unrelated things.

I abandon sessions when I ask for something then it spins for a minute, fills up 40% of the context window and comes back with the totally wrong questions and I don't like the approach it took to get there. I don't answer any of the questions and just kill the session and start a new one with a different prompt.

I agree. In my experience: "single-purpose sessions for small tasks" is the key
