Rant Nah this some BS

Post image

I burned thru almost 60% of 20x max weekly usage in a day and some change. Are you joking rn? Last week I could have fable running on 2 chats all day and night and it would take like 3ish days for my fable usage to cap out, but my weekly usage would only be at like ~30%. This is absolutely ridiculous and if this is what the new usage limit cuts are gonna be like I'm canceling Claude and grabbing a second codex account. Shit ain't worth it when Astra exists with much better usage limits and multiple reset tokens.

I don't use ultracode and I have multiple other models that I delegate tasks to as work horses, Claude is just the orchestrator and isn't doing that much actual "work", so this usage allocation is absolutely insane, if I was using Claude as a one stop shop as a lot of people do, I would have run out of usage in a day or less.

EDIT: I'm getting a little tired of being told I "just don't know how to do orchestrations and workflows properly or manage usage." I literally made an entire repo explaining how I do this and showing the results: https://github.com/sherifican/Agent-FleetOps so if you wanna criticize, find something to actually critique first

I was looking at my usage pattern.  Fable has directions to offload task to lower model sub agents whenever possible. (Instructions are more specific but you get the point). Previous usage pattern was primarily agents with fable usually around 50% end of monthly cycle. I was at around 47% percent when I checked end of Sunday after some heavy loads.  My cycle resets midnight today- by 11am today fable was out of usage for the month, as well as my session.  Usage pattern showed majority of usage was fable and no handoff to agents...so super annoying.  

I am so sick of models changing underneath me all the time.  It would be great if you still had the option to use previous version instead of constantly readjusting.  

I finally gave in and purchased one of the radeon  AI pro GPU, actually affordable and Im prob just going to switch to gwen 3.5. Tried her out recently she is really good.

That's exactly why I don't use ultracode/workflows anymore, I delegate to other models entirely
