I have these exact issues with GPT 5.6 Sol too. I haven't tried Opus 5, but I guess it's even worse.

"like the question framing has been pulled from the middle of its own reasoning stream" this describes how it asks things perfectly. It often invents its own jargon and abbreviations for things that its working on, then asking me things like We are nod in the middle of GBAPI-2 and I want to proceed with IG5, should we take CDI-7 or CDI-8? Where all of these abbreviations are then things like stages of its current internal plan or its naming of things it has just implemented, like an abbreviation of a classname, without explaining any of the naming.

I find the questions are not clearly asked and somehow half baked as caveats toward the middle end of what it’s vomiting.

“One thing I deliberately didn’t touch” — about half the time this is something completely irrelevant or something that is actually the target of whatever you’re working on, and the shakespearean prose it says around this phrase is a “question” it has.

> but often it's hard to understand what it's asking me, it's like the question framing has been pulled from the middle of its own reasoning stream, references aren't anchored or restated, often I have to prompt it to ask again but "clearly and concisely, for humans"

it's like reading one of those dense philosophy books: exhausting!
