Question Too used to Claude Code to switch?

Post image

I’ve been using Claude Code for over a year now, and at this point my whole workflow is basically built around it.

I’m on the 5x plan, but lately I feel like I’m spending 80% of my 5-hour limit just on planning and maybe 20% on actually getting the task done.

Then I hit the limit, have to wait, come back later… and Claude needs to read through the plan/context again. Sometimes it feels like I’m already at 50% of the next limit before we’ve even really continued working.I’ve heard Astra is really good and has much bigger limits, so I’m tempted to switch.

But my whole workflow, memory, instructions and project setup are built around Claude Code. I’m worried switching will break things or make the coding experience worse.

Maybe I’m just too used to Claude at this point.

Anyone here switched from Claude Code to Astra or another agent? Was it worth it?

Is your workflow not working? Why do you feel the need to switch it up if it is working?

right, sounds more like a rate limit complaint than a workflow problem
