The codebase is large, or you have files with thousands of lines of code? Because there’s a big difference. AI agents are perfectly able to work with large codebases, but they do have problems with large files (which usually are a sign of terrible code).
Context issue.
My code base is so large the agent collapses mid way over these kinds of tasks.
