Context windows in LLMs aren’t just a memory limit — they’re a design constraint that shapes how you structure information. The closer something is to the end of the prompt, the more attention it gets. This is why system prompts and few-shot examples that live at the top often get “forgotten” in long conversations. When building on top of LLMs, treat context placement as a first-class architectural decision, not an afterthought.
