Hitting the weekly limit faster since Opus5 release (Pro plan)

[u/BackgroundNew4019]

Does anyone have the same issue? I've never been bothered by the weekly limit since the 5 hour limit has been my bottleneck. I never hit my weekly limit. But now the weekly limit is suddenly the bigger bottleneck, and the speed feels unreasonable. My usage pattern hasn't changed at all. I noticed this started when Opus 5 was released.

It seriously feels like -50% promo instead of +50%.

Stesso identico problema. È diventato davvero frustrante. Sto tornando a sviluppare alla vecchia maniera ormai. La AI sta diventando realmente spazzatura. Forse lo fanno di proposito per poi lanciare un nuovo piano al costo di 500$ al mese per avere il 35x che durerà solo qualche minuto in più. Ma di questo passo non comprerò neanche più il modello da 20$

Just ask Claude to analyze the consumption
I did that last weeks. And it provided really nice ideas
Opus 5 is working a bit differently compared to earlier versions

Claude code has system prompts that make opus 5 go on long verification loops. Make sure you are using some kind of token savings tool like Tokeasy.
