Bug Description
I am experiencing a critical issue with the latest version of Kiro. Normally, when the context limit is reached (usually around 80%+), Kiro automatically summarizes the conversation and starts a new chat session to continue the task.
However, in the current version, Kiro frequently stops working and throws the error: "Context limit exceeded unexpectedly. Please start a new session to continue."
Crucially, this happens even when the context usage is very low (e.g., 29% as seen in the screenshot), and it fails to automatically trigger the next session. Clicking to chat or continue simply repeats the error, blocking progress.
Steps to Reproduce
- Start a coding task in the latest version of Kiro.
- Allow the session to run for a while (but nowhere near the full context limit).
- Observe that Kiro stops with the error: "Context limit exceeded unexpectedly. Please start a new session to continue."
- Attempt to send a message to continue.
Actual Behavior: The agent stops completely at low context usage (e.g., ~29%). It does not automatically create a new chat to continue the workflow. The user is forced to manually start a new session, losing the immediate flow.
Expected Behavior
The agent should utilize the context up to a higher threshold (e.g., >80%) and then automatically handle the transition to a new chat/session without throwing an "unexpected" error.
Screenshots: Attached screenshots showing context usage at 29% and the error message.

Version: Latest version
