Gemini's 3 line execution mode

I had a multi-hour conversation with a single Gemini session and noticed that the responses dropped in quality and started coming back very fast. Iโ€™m familiar with context limits and context poisoning, but the sudden brevity still surprised me. I asked the agent what was going on and found this: It turns out that deep into a work session, 3-line responses are a feature, not a bug. Nothing too deep here, just a fun way to accidentally stumble onto a technical detail through a random observation.
