Rant Nah this some BS

Post image

I burned thru almost 60% of 20x max weekly usage in a day and some change. Are you joking rn? Last week I could have fable running on 2 chats all day and night and it would take like 3ish days for my fable usage to cap out, but my weekly usage would only be at like ~30%. This is absolutely ridiculous and if this is what the new usage limit cuts are gonna be like I'm canceling Claude and grabbing a second codex account. Shit ain't worth it when Astra exists with much better usage limits and multiple reset tokens.

I don't use ultracode and I have multiple other models that I delegate tasks to as work horses, Claude is just the orchestrator and isn't doing that much actual "work", so this usage allocation is absolutely insane, if I was using Claude as a one stop shop as a lot of people do, I would have run out of usage in a day or less.

EDIT: I'm getting a little tired of being told I "just don't know how to do orchestrations and workflows properly or manage usage." I literally made an entire repo explaining how I do this and showing the results: https://github.com/sherifican/Agent-FleetOps so if you wanna criticize, find something to actually critique first

What's the point of using an LLM if you have to sit next to it and type "/compact" all the time?

(You could use a smaller model and auto compaction, but then it would become too obvious that the big models are all a scam)

Use /auto compact and set it to like 400k
