I just did this five minutes ago. Started a task with Kimi K3, noticed cost going up, switched to Minimax M3 continuing from the same context. Really easy to do with Crush/OpenCode.
It works quite well most of the time. For very deeply technical tasks, where exploration involves multiple agents (and blowing up context limits a few times), I'll have a plan written down to disk that will be much longer than 2k tokens.
