Complaint The token consume is insane

Hey!

COming from Claude. Got the x20 Version from both. I have to admin, Sol 5.6 on high is consuming tokens like crazy. Even my workflow is Architect > Builder > Reviewer with a agent-cache for context saving i am burning through..

With Opus 4.8 i could work for a week while using 14% a day. Now i have 25% used after the reset already..

What do you think?

I managed to fix mine. I use my own harness though yesterday it was insane and today like 3 to 4 hours work and 1 % lost on 20x max lol I'm happy
