suddenly braindead agent mode.

Help/Doubt ❓

when i use grok or gpt4.1 for a typical easy coding task they both have become braindead today. As if they have almost no context. making the same mistakes over and over even with recent corrective prompting. I've never had this issue with grok. It's been a reliable workhorse for many things, capable of implementing straight forward logic in a smallish codebase.

note: earlier today i got a token throttle message for the first time. grok was iterating and it triggered the cap. I came back a few hours later and now it's a big dummy. Tried 4.1 too and it suffered a major decline. It's *possible* if reached a complexity level that they can't quite handle, but ... nah. These are simple asks.

Gotta be something wrong.
