Performance Degradation Due to Excessive Make History (nearly 700 Versions) & Request for Code Organization Best Practices

Issue Summary
I'm experiencing severe performance issues in a Figma Make file that has accumulated naerly 700 context versions. The file frequently freezes, becomes unresponsive, and consumes credits at an unusually high rate, making it nearly impossible to continue working.

What I've Tried
- Using the desktop app instead of the browser (still laggy)  
- Clearing cache and performing hard refreshes  
- Avoiding large batch prompts – the problem persists  

Root Cause (Suspected) 
The excessive number of Make conversation versions appears to be the main bottleneck. I understand that users cannot manually delete version history, and the current file size (or context length) is causing the editor to struggle.

My Requests  
1. Reset / purge the Make conversation history for this file from the backend to restore performance.  ONLY keep version 689
2. Advise on best practices for cleaning up and structuring the code generated by Make. The codebase has become quite messy after many iterations, and I'd like to know if there are recommended workflows (e.g., exporting structure, refactoring prompts, organizing components) to keep the project maintainable as it scales.

File Access  
I've invited `support-share@figma.com` as an editor to the file.

Thank you for your help. I'm happy to provide any additional details if needed.

Hey ​@lzx - thank you inquiring about this. First, I wanted to let you know that I edited your post to remove your email address and file line from your post in order to protect your privacy.

Second: I saw that you originally filed a support ticket that may have directed you our way (it was ticket #1817232). I went ahead and created a new one on your behalf, so you could receive more detailed support. You seem to have multiple complexities in your Make design that I think should be reviewed by one our Technical Quality agents. 

Your new and current ticket number is #1817924. I just sent it prior to this response, so please let me know if you did not receive it.
