100k character limit is too restrictive for agentic workflows (Goose CLI)
Hi 1min.ai team,
I am submitting this via Feedback rather than Support, as this is a product/roadmap request rather than a bug. I’m a Lifetime Pro user (with a healthy 11.5M credit balance) and a daily user of your API via the Goose CLI coding agent. I am also registered on the waitlist for your upcoming agent development.
I'm writing to share some product feedback regarding the 100,000 character context window limit, as it is severely impacting my ability to use your API for agentic coding.
To make multi-step coding tasks work within the current 100k character (~25k token) window, I am forced to configure Goose with very aggressive context-compaction and tool-output limits:
GOOSE_AUTO_COMPACT_TOKEN_LIMIT=25000
GOOSE_MAX_TOOL_RESPONSE_SIZE=40000
GOOSE_TOOL_CALL_CUTOFF=10 (only the last 10 tool interactions retained in full)
The core issue: Because of this window limit, the agent is forced to discard information (like file contents, terminal output, or git diffs) purely to fit within the window. It's not a matter of cost—I have over 11 million credits and I am happy to pay for the extra tokens. It is purely a technical context limit.
I fully appreciate that 1min.ai is working to reimburse credits and offer daily allowances, which is incredibly generous. But I literally cannot consume the credits you are giving me because the agent runs out of context window before it runs out of money.
Furthermore, I know you have an agent product in the pipeline. If you are expecting agentic workflows to run effectively on this platform, 25k tokens will be a severe bottleneck. Modern agentic workflows (like Claude's or GPT-4's) typically require 128k to 200k token windows to maintain state across multiple files and terminal executions.
My questions for you:
Is the 100k character limit account-wide, or is it specific to the model I am using (qwen3.7-flash)?
Do you have plans to offer models with larger context windows (e.g., 128k+ tokens) in the future, even if they require a higher credit consumption rate?
I love the platform, but the context window is currently the biggest blocker to me building real, complex tools with it.
Thanks for your time and for the great work on the platform.
Best regards,
