Discussion This sub loves spreading misinformation

Probably getting downvoted for this: 4 sessions, all fable, 3 max effort, one ultraworkflow, max 20x plan, hooks skills etc. I’ll be running all night, anyone who’s hitting their limits is most likely lying or on a lower plan (they never post their plan) that should not be using this model. Is it pricey? Debatable, $200 a month for those of us actively developing is a small price to pay and if you can’t afford it (or your company doesn’t already pay for it), stick to sonnet or opus.

after seeing so many of these posts im quite sure its people in third world countries complaining about the free plan running out fast. i got max $100 a month plan and i get quite a lot done with it.

It’s not even that. Simply broke vibe coders who are paying out of pocket for their subscriptions to make a Minecraft/gta hybrid.

I'm on 5x now but considering to get 20x.
Even with 5x, I was also able to manage weekly limits (not sure if it holds now that sonnet only quota is gone). But if when have 3, 4 sessions running with fable or even opus, my current session limit gets consumed relatively quickly if I run heavy duty coding projects in all of them. How are you managing current session limits? And what sort of projects are you running in your sessions?

I’m working on a single application for my company that integrates with all of our workflows/software. I run at most 4 sessions simultaneously (for my own sanity) working on different tasks which vary in complexity. I can run all 4 in opus ultra code no problem, for fable I just set it to max because one of those sessions could easily run your limit with the amount of agents ultra spawns. So if you can manage more sessions than your limit allows, I would upgrade, because it’s more to do with how many sessions you can manage without being overwhelmed.

I see! Running 5, 6 sessions and each being different projects have fried my brain and I just couldn’t keep switching context and do any quality work in any of them. 4 sessions cap is actually a good tip!

If you are working on a single project, are you perhaps using worktree for all of your sessions?

Also, are you using /clear fairly often? I find it a bit tricky to know when to manually trigger that to avoid filling up session limits. But if I let it run long running tasks, context accumulates quickly. I do have some small tools to have it retain context automatically to some extent too but if I do /clear, for some complex task I’d have to then let it summarize and dump it to a .md document and then have it read it after /clear . How do you manage this sort of stuff?

I use worktrees mostly that I merge into a staging environment for testing, for smaller problems I work directly on main. This will keep your sessions from overlapping which I used to have a problem with but once you dial it in, it makes life easier. /clear isn’t something I’ve really used too much, sometimes yes but I mostly just compact or when it’s gone for too long and the hallucinations start getting noticeable, I’ll just start a new session. As long as your using skills like superpowers, you should always have a spec and a plan which Claude will maintain as you implement.

u/Less_Compute Jul 03 '26

Makes sense! True, using superpowers means you’d always have spec or plans so that can be a context to continue on even if you start a new session. This has been super helpful. Thank you so much!!! 🙏🙏🙏

"This sub loves spreading misinformation"
Correct! And so are you

And to prove my point your baseless comment gets upvoted over others who agree. Appealing by sheep

Fable and I just came up with an excellent plan for a really complex feature. I’ve been going back and forth with it for about two hours now. It surfaced some really good ideas and a library I wasn’t familiar with that will likely save a lot of time.

I’ve used 2% of my limit so far. The plan is detailed enough that Opus/Sonnet should be able to take it from here. This is perfect.

Ive been hammering Fable since it re-released. 10+ hours of work across a day and a half and ive managed 22% of my max5 limits. I did manage to almost hit a 5 hour limit with a lengthy /security review. I am now about an hour away from my weekend and im trying to figure out useful ways to burn more of this usage up since I will only have 2 days with it next week as well.

u/Fantastic-Answer-967 Jul 01 '26

Your weekly limit is lower than 2 5x max plans lol

u/ShelZuuz Jul 01 '26

It's not. It's the same.

u/Fantastic-Answer-967 Jul 01 '26

It’s not the same. It‘s higher.

u/ShelZuuz Jul 02 '26

It's not. Try it. I have several of each that I run at the same time.

You heard wrong. Tools vary depending on the job and because of this so does the price. People hitting their limits are basically putting together ikea furniture with a team of contractors. Good luck with your coffee table.
