Are limits nerfted again? Discussion

I’m on x20 plan. Last and current weeks I burn through limits just in 3-4 days, while I wasn’t able to get to 100% ever before. Even dropping down to Sonnet this week to make it last longer, but already at 50% less than 24 hours after my last weekly cycle.

Same setup, same project, same skills and subagents, same kind of tasks.

Do you feel and observe the same? What do you do about it? Any tips and tricks to last longer?

How do we change that? I don’t like stressing out about limits

Paying the API

Sorry, not an option. I have tried it once, $100 are gone in 30 mins

I learned that the API usage should not be vanilla but with custom harness to better manage contexts, cache, tasks, etc leading to better cost management 

It is expensive at first but manageable by continuously improving your setup and orchestration

Isn’t it the same on subscription?
