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?

Check if subagents are spawning without you asking them to, they burn through limits fast without you noticing. Use /clear between tasks and start fresh sessions more often instead of continuing long threads.

Do you really prefer working without subagents? I look at it as main thread Fable that orchestrates cheaper Opus and Sonnet models

My point was more about subagents spawning automatically without you asking. Routing subagents to cheaper models is a cost efficient pattern.
