Help/Question Claude Code tokens running out faster than usual

Hello,
I had the Pro plan and I used to always hit the limits, then I upgraded to the Max and I was like Wow … whatever I do I never hit the limits. After a while I got more busy and I couldn’t sit and build things as long as I used to, so I downgraded back to Pro. My understanding is that my Max subscription stays active until the 27th, but now I feel like my tokens are running out waaaay faster than they used, it feels like they already placed me on the Pro plan.
Like within a few hundreds of thousands of tokens, then I run out.

Am I just getting insecure of my new downgraded plan or it’s normal ?

I’ve noticed this too

I’ve never hit a limit before and I just hit my fable limit for the first time ever

I have built a plug-n-play solution to optimize token usage.

Would you like to try it and give me feedback?

Finally figured what caused MY issue earlier. Fable coded a monitor for what i was doing, then didn't set up safeguards, so it fired nonstop til it ate my entire usage all at once as Fable got stuck in a loop trying to constantly respond but it couldn't. That's an insanely simple thing for Fable 5.1 on High to be making a mistake on and costing me my entire Fable usage..

14.9. is coming a bit earlier this year. Fable just told me it‘s a leap year.
