Until step 4 everything stays the same, but instead of asking it to fix the code again you copy it into another session, this way, you'll repeat step 3 again, without the LLM "seeing" the code it previously generated for step 4.
I dunno how you SWE's are doing it, but I have my ChatGPT output files and if multi, zip files, not code snippets (unless I want a code snippet), and then I re-upload those files to new session using the attach thinger. Also, in my experience just building marketing websites, I don't do step 3, I just do step 1 and 2 over and over in new sessions, it's longer because you have to figure out a flow through a bunch of work sessions, but it's faster because it makes wwwwaaaaayyyyyyy fewer mistakes. (You're basically just shaking off any additional context the GPT has at all about what you are doing when you put it in a brand-new session, so it can be more focused on the task, I guess?)

First Variant:
1. User: Asks coding question
2. Ai: Outputs half functioning code
3. User: Asks to fix specific things
4. Ai: Creates buggy code
5. User: asks again to fix things
6. Ai: writes even more buggy code
Proposed second variant with copying code:
