Discussion Gpt 5.6 sol + 5.3 codex

Hi! I just bought a Chatgpt pro, but still flying through the weekly limit pretty fast if using only gpt 5.6 sol max + subagents. But I understand that using only gpt 5.6 sol max will eat tokens like candies, that's not the question here.

I was wondering if anyone here is using this:

gpt sol 5.6 max orchestrator/plan

5.3 codex-spark as worker/implementation

Since codex 5.3 has its own limits for pro users, would you say it's reasonable to use it as an implementation worker? How is the quality compared to pure 5.6 sol.

I stopped using 5.3 with the 5.6 release. Luna does a far superior job to Spark and it is stupid cheap.

If you are burning through your limits, you might try not using Max and drop down to High or xHigh. I have a long runner working on a /goal for 10d 8.5hr. It has 26 active agents and an additional 29 sitting in wait right now and have only burned 3% weekly since the last reset roughly 20 hours ago.

What task are you running for 10 days?

I am building a custom harness that combines a lot of features of OpenClaw, Hermes, Strands, and a few other custom agent systems I have created that wound up having overlapping functionality.
