I've seen the same thing. It would keep running for a long time, then produce nothing useful, almost like it got stuck halfway through.

If I asked the same thing again, it would often work normally. So the weird part wasn't that it couldn't do the task — it just failed to continue once it got into that state.

Built a fake star detector that uses stratified sampling across the full star history (not just recent stargazers).

Ran it on Union Labs and a few other repos from the Awesome Agents investigation. Results are interesting.
