I keep being on the verge of signing up for Claude Pro (missed the free month), but there's always something that holds me back.
I currently use Codex when I want to do any vibe coding, and it's fine for what I need. Maybe Claude Code would be better, but my guess is that it would just depend on the task. Not sure I want (or need) both at the moment.
Where Claude shines for me is in more complex discussions that require emotional intelligence or a more creative framework. However…after noticing the somewhat jarring changes that occur deeper into a conversation, I did find info about the Anthropic long conversation prompt.

It's a shame, because I'll have an incredibly helpful conversation with Claude about a project, and then suddenly it'll shift into a totally different personality and it starts hallucinating - thinking that suggestions it made were things I did. Or pushing to send something unfinished without making helpful suggestions, and then when I point out the unfinished parts it'll shift again, "Oh yeah, don't send that! You definitely should change those things."
So…is there any best practices for avoiding this shift? Is there a good way to summarize the convo and move it into a new thread without losing 80% of the context? Should I be somehow copying the entire thread and moving it into a Project file, or ?
