I not an expert ai user (and have never touched Codex), but anything remotely important I do, I force the smallest context window possible. I just did something very beautiful using that principle, which will soon be ready to show the world. It would have been a garbled pile of garbage with long context windows. Obviously major architectural changes need a bigger context window. But try to aggressively modularize your tasks as much as you can, and where possible run batch jobs to keep your workflow moving while each task stays a smaller chunk.
