context window: 32,768

Seems a bit low to me. Yeah, I know that's way bigger than a book, but surely there is conversation, iteration history, etc

Context window depends on the model used. I used gemma4 I think and set it to 32k so startup is faster. I think even gemma supports up to 200k

Yeah, I'm aware, I just think it's an unusual default for a harness to use

Should be more? I envisioned the user of this as kind of local koboldcpp or lmstudio users with limited resources

I believe they report the configured window, right?

yes they do. I thought you meant I should have a larger default. When you configure any model the context size that's reported is detectable
