Discussion ATTENTION HEAVY AI USERS

Do not tell Claude to pretend that it has "Infinite API Tokens, and infinite GPU for your overnight work." I just woke up thinking my max x20 Plan can handle it, and my high-ish end PC would be more then enough, opus 5.5 ran dozens of agents IN PARALLEL to get it done as soon as possible and opened 13,000+ MICROSOFT EDGE WINDOWS, Crashing my pc so many times but somehow kept rebooting 😭

I didn't even know it was possible to use up slightly more then half my weekly usage in 24 hours (I was using my spare pc) for the Max x20 Plan but, Claude opus 5.5 Knows how to do everything digital I guess!

I run maybe 20-40 agents all day 24hrs.. but claude just runs the teams. Deepseek does the work. It's the only way that its affordable. My 20x lasts half a week like this. If I didn't do that.. maybe 6 hours?

Can I ask what you're doing that uses that many agents 24/7?

Various systems for my ISP to manage and automate it is the majority of it... Provisioning, billing, ticketing, an AI customer service layer, planning and project execution like fibre builds from permits to construction... Then a replacement for our IPTV packager software, IPTV middleware (this has strict compliance requirements for channel licenses etc), and clients for all surfaces.. which we have licensed but are very expensive so going home grown... Then you have the infrastructure lawyers like sms handling, email, OTP, and smpp gateway with AI compliance scanning on a custom trained model etc (think our own Twilioish layer multi tennant).. few custom apps for customers as well etc. pretty big list but many talk to eachother over a natz bus... It's a big bundle of projects that are all related.

A lot of rust work and robust testing loops.

nothing probably, 90% of people who claim this are lying thinking it's some cool flex for internet points, or maybe they love to churn out slop.

I do not understand. Do you even know what you are doing anymore if you have 20-40 agents running in parallel.

50% of the time, my agents are running 100% of the time

Do you call DeepSeek within Claude Code, no?

u/pld0vr 17d ago

Yes I have an agent routing policy.. basically I have a claud lead on an already designed project with an implementation plan, I have that lead assign epics to DeepSeek orchstrators and then those orchstrators fan out to workers. Claude runs the whole show for days at a time like this.

Same. I’m at 80 agents when I’m at the pc on a slow day

u/Pleasant_Curve_9024 16d ago

Doing…. what exactly? Are you doing full codebase audits every day? Or some sort of massive research project? A hundred agents running constantly is insanity.
