API token limit error discards 30+ mins of work with no checkpoint recovery #1

The worst part is: it had already spent 31 minutes doing deep code analysis, reading files, and running skills — all that progress is just gone. No partial results, no way to pick up where it left off. I wasted all those tokens and time for nothing.

It would be a huge improvement if the tool could:

  1. Save intermediate results/checkpoints as it goes (analysis summaries, parsed configs, partial content)
  2. Let me retry the final output step without redoing all the expensive pre-processing
  3. Resume from the last successful point when hitting token limits, instead of starting over completely

Right now, if a big task hits this limit, you lose everything — that's really frustrating for long workflows.
