Kinda surprising to me, since i had some trouble with Cursor & Co. once the file went over ~800 lines. It repeatedly failed to edit it, until i split it up into multiple logical components. As it should have been from the beginning...

Though, it was some time ago, so things might have improved?

VSCode basically any model can edit the 20K file without any issues. The coding harness does not read the entire file at once though. It reads chunks of it so the size does not really matter. What matters is how close are the things the agent needs to make the edit.

Yeah, that was my experience with Grok, whenever I gave it a file with over 400 lines it would just fail to comprehend it or be too lazy to write too much at a time. Splitting stuff up into separate files helped.
