Generating running routes with GPT‑6 Astra

The author asked ChatGPT Work (GPT‑6 Astra) to generate 5K/10K loop routes from their address. The assistant used Nominatim and Overpass to fetch OSM data and produced visualizations plus GPX/GeoJSON files, but the exact code and steps were hidden in the UI and lost after thread compaction; the author argues systems must preserve pre‑compacted text and make it accessible via agent/tool calls for transparency.
