What

The context window is how much of the conversation the model can see at once. In the settings screen for it, a hint saying the auto setting picks a window tuned for your model, and is strongly recommended, now appears only for some settings. Before this release it always appeared.

The separate warning that overriding auto may result in high token usage still follows its own rule.

Why

The recommendation text is now shown conditionally rather than everywhere.
