there’s something of a paradox there. Reduce the context window and work on smaller/tightly scoped requests? Isn’t the whole value proposition that I can work much faster? To do that, I naturally try to describe what I want at a higher, vaguer level.

That's where something like openspec and beads come in. You work high level, create a spec and break it down into beads (small tasks). Your main agent then spawns workers that perform a task with limited scope.
