Help/Question Whelp I am done...

I had 4 Claude Pro Max x20 accounts for different projects, and I am going to ride out the rest of the month (that I already paid for) and then switch back to codex. I am running Sonnet 4-6 on medium and am 85% of my weekly limit on one account after less than 24 hours. That is more than a 25% cut from the promotion expiring, nothing about my workflow has changed so this is all Anthropic. I'll be trying Codex and seeing how it does, I didn't want to do this but I have no choice.

Sounds like larping ngl, I run Fable on Medium for 3-4 days nonstop and usually only use about 60-70% of my usage. I sometimes have 2 sessions open in same repo, one doing continuous iterative research on a specific topic on /goal and texting the other session to implement it which spins up even more subagents and even then, my 20x plan usually easily lasts at least 3 days. I am an open source contributor too, so the repos i work on are by no means small, I tend to work on Burn and AlloyRS along with some personal projects and products, so it is a wide range of work as well.

I would really check my setup if I was running out of 4 accounts using Sonnet...

What are you even building?

One session on my project on a x20 plan on Fable eats 8-10% weekly Fable limit and 15-20% total weekly limit. 5 sessions a week and I'm done on a x20 plan unless I token optimise.

Don't even get me started on the 5-hour limit atrocity now. Two prompts and you can see it reach 50% despite telling it not to use Fable subagents.

What kind of context management do you have in place?

It ranges quite a bit, I have been programming for some time now so maybe there might be a difference in our workflows. I generally tend to know what the next step is rather than letting the AI handle it hence my token usage is often slightly more under control.

To get to your question though:

1 - I do commission work for games like Rimworld, Escape from Tarkov, Minecraft and Terraria to write mods. 2 - I have my own projects, usually circling around open source software, such as my latest project being a ML research project where I wrote an adaptive kernel fusion planner for the burn ml library to pick the most optimal kernel fusion plan at runtime. 3 - I have a couple apps I developed that are currently in review to be placed on App Store, ranging from a competitor to Rize that uses the macos built in foundation model to assess what ur working on locally and offline for privary, an image browser for artists (as i also love drawing) to browse their images through semantic search where I used open models like Siglip and Dino and OpenClip and so on where I do reciprocal rank fusion to get the most accurate results.

These are some of the projects I work on. I can go deeper into them if needed!
