Retry context reduces LocalLLaMA repetition

A proposal on r/LocalLLaMA suggests keeping failed LLM responses in the context window to act as "negative examples" for subsequent retries. This technique helps local models avoid repetitive outputs and improves creative variety in general chat interfaces.

// ANALYSIS

Retry context is a simple implementation of contrastive decoding at the prompt layer that forces the model to move past its own previous errors. This technique provides a major quality-of-life upgrade for local LLMs prone to repetitive loops, offering a more efficient way to ensure variety than random temperature adjustments alone.
