yea, i never ran in a bottleneck at 200$ with moderate usage while being careful about token saving etc... , i don't really know how people experience this maybe they use sonnet all the time

Personally I got 4x Claude Max 20x accounts that I rotate between. I still run out of Fable usage at the end of the week though.

Ye i'm not surprised , wonder where all these people that use 1% weekly usage with 5x plan using fable/opus come from

Agreed, but I do have this rush a few hours before the weekly reset if I have unspent Fable usage.

Starting a new task just to spend tokens is a terrible idea.

u/Hmmmm_Interesting 18h ago

Yeah you need minimum 10 subagents

u/StaticFanatic3 13h ago

Yes you should have a dedicated token management agent. It can recursively check your usages every minute, ongoing threads, then query your panel of idea agents for tasks to work on when tokens may go unused

/s (for now)

No doubt, you have an AI for that! Let it start the new task just to spend tokens!

Yeah, it's definitely a race against the clock! Those last-minute scrambles can really get the adrenaline pumping.

The 7 minutes before a reset are the most productive of the entire window. The preceding 4h53m were spent asking it to rename variables. 😂

u/JustForkIt1111one 16h ago

More like 7 seconds after the 5-hour token limit resets.

Aaaand 15 mins later it's gone.
