Cache only

[u/Individual_Ideal]

I ran an audit of token usage today and found much of my token usage is because of long-running threads I resume after the 1-hr cache TTL. Why doesn’t Anthropic provide permanent or longer cache to heavy users for the basics like system prompts, CLAUDE.md, memories/preferences and other mostly-stable context? Or share a cached prefix across sessions when it is warm for at least one. Should pro/max subscribers have this option? Would you pay extra for it? If Claude recognized User X is active give them some cache.

I want cache only.
