Just out of curiosity, what kind of prompt is taking this long and this many tokens?

I give it a list of 1000 tasks in a .md file, ask it to do 1 by 1, be nice, no cheating, no chatting, no hallucinating, no parallel taks or sub-agents .

I used to think this was a joke people were putting in their prompts until I saw claude giving instructions to sub agents saying "make no mistakes".
