A software system called Vodou has been updated to better manage the context window of large language models by introducing a registry for prompt writers. Initially designed with five context lanes, an audit revealed seven, and later an eighth was added, highlighting an issue where individual code components were writing to prompts without a centralized registration system. The new registry, defined in a TOML file, requires each prompt-writing component to declare its name, budget, priority, and overflow handling, with a new rule in the coherence guard script enforcing this registration to prevent uncounted context injections.
