[Feature Request] Seamless recovery when context window is exceeded (auto-continue + model fallback)Β #527

Description

Problem
You hit a hard stop when chat input passes model context size.
Error shown:
"Something went wrong
Your input exceeds the context window of this model. Please adjust your input and try again."
This stop breaks browser automation tasks in progress.

Current workaround
You do four manual steps.
You open a new session.
You write a manual recap.
You restate done tasks and pending tasks.
You re share links and files.
This path takes extra time and drops details.

Requested behavior
Show context usage in the chat UI and warn before the limit.
When overflow occurs, show a Continue in new session action.
Build an automatic handoff note with user goal, done steps, pending steps, key links, key files, and open questions.
Start the new session with this handoff note and resume pending browser actions.
Offer model switch and compact retry paths with session state kept.
Add a BrowserOS skill for GitHub Feedback posting in this same style.
The skill should open New Issue, write this structure, and save a draft for user review before submit.

Acceptance criteria
One click starts recovery.
The new session includes a full handoff note.
The assistant resumes from the pending step.
No link or file is missing after recovery.
The user reviews the issue draft before post.

Impact
This change removes manual recap work and lowers task drop risk during long runs.


I am sharing my idea. We love to make BrowserOS better. ✨
