Description

I have a question regarding OptiGuide. Due to token size limitations, it appears that OptiGuide struggles to handle large optimization problems. For instance, in the coffee problem, when the number of suppliers is extensive, OptiGuide may fail to perform effectively. Are there any workarounds or plans in place to enhance OptiGuide's capabilities for such scenarios?"

Research direction

The issue names the coffee example but no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing the example with a large supplier count and inspect where token-size limitations cause failure. Done would require a documented workaround or an agreed enhancement for larger optimization problems.
