Task-driven repo, clear your context (restart the harness), check the results.

Don't try for a rambling session where you let the thing grind for hours on a huge system. It will predictably choke or end in those loops. But do a few small chunks of work, exit the harness, then pick up the next few small chunks... It doesn't feel as magical, but it seems to be more effective, even when your model is Claude.
