What it does
Context Mode processes large outputs in sandboxed subprocesses instead of dumping raw data into the context window. Only summaries enter the conversation.
Without Context Mode: 315 KB of raw data burns ~80K tokens per session
With Context Mode: 5.4 KB of clean summaries — same analysis, 98% less context
