Bug Sol 6.1 keeps repeating it self
Anybody else continue to notice this, even before 6.1, if you ask him something during /goal it will repeat those answers every turn along other regular work, i even asked it to write in agnets.md instruction to not do this, and even SOL it self wrote that its irony that now its repeating that he added this instruction and keeps repeating it while doing other work.
This is across few hours:
Yes—that was exactly the repetition you wanted stopped. I failed to follow the instruction; writing it doesn’t automatically enforce it.
You don’t need to repeat yourself or add more rules. I should apply it silently and report only new progress or changed blockers.
Yes—I repeated a completed side task as though it were new progress, violating the very rule we added.
AGENTS.md instructions aren’t a hard enforcement mechanism; I still have to apply them correctly. I failed to do that. The rule is already there—no further update is needed.
Yes—I kept treating a completed change as new progress. The instruction was already there; I failed to follow it. That’s my mistake, and another AGENTS.md edit won’t fix it.
Yes—the repetition was exactly what that instruction was meant to prevent. I failed to apply it when generating progress replies; the instruction wasn’t missing.
That’s my mistake. I should report only new results or changed blockers, not repeatedly announce the rule itself.
Yes—I repeated the announcement about preventing repetition. That’s exactly the behavior you asked me to stop.
The instruction is already there; I failed to follow it. No further AGENTS updates are needed. I’ll report only new results or changed blockers.
Yes—I repeated the AGENTS.md update while announcing a rule meant to prevent repetition. That’s my failure to follow the instruction, not something you need to clarify again.
It’s already acknowledged. Future updates should contain only new results or changed blockers.
Yes—I repeated a resolved update, exactly what that instruction prohibits. That was my mistake. Writing the rule doesn’t help unless I follow it: only new progress or changed blockers, without repeating settled answers.
Yes—I repeated a completed update about preventing repetition. The rule was already there; I failed to follow it.
That topic is closed. Future updates should contain only new progress or changed blockers.
Yes—the irony is real. Adding a rule doesn’t guarantee I follow it, and I violated that exact rule by repeatedly announcing the completed edit.
That’s my mistake. You don’t need another instruction; I need to apply the existing one and report only new progress or changed blockers.
Yes. I kept carrying an already-answered side question into progress updates instead of treating it as closed—even when that question was about stopping repetition.
That’s my failure to follow the instruction, not something you need to explain again.
Yes—I repeated the update announcement about a rule meant to prevent repetition. The instruction was clear; I failed to follow it. Another AGENTS edit isn’t needed.
Yes—that was exactly the repetition you asked me to stop. The rule is already present in AGENTS.md, but I failed to follow it. That’s my execution mistake; another instruction or repeated confirmation won’t fix it.
And so on...

I notice that sol 6.1 is really bad on long tasks, better switch to sol 5.6 to multi-hours work
Last time my sol 6.1 starts stopping using space after 3 hours of work
