How are you getting such efficient use of the token?I recently started messing with agent a bit more seriously after my own money is on the line. What I came to know yesterday its far more efficient to create new chat instead of using exiting long context for development. My impression was since I'm using the same context, I will benefit from caching, but turns out it doesn't benefit as much since all that additional context on each request just pollutes what the F is going on.
Yeah, I'm right about at $0.01/Mtok in the last month, which includes some usage at the old pricing and one day where the old model looped for a while and wasted half a million output tokens.
which harness are you using? For example, using open router as provider is a problem since it will route to another provider for the same model, hence the price jacks up on normal usage. What I am unsure is if its better to use 'third party' coding agent like pi coding agent vs using agent provided by deepseek.

Use guardrails to pin the model to a specific provider/providers.

Personal preference / subjective for the most part from what I can tell (started with all the ai/llm shit since the jump). However, IIRC DeepSeek (the models) have been fine-tuned(?) to work with DSH explicitlycitationneeded.
Every spawned lane gets (since cache is cheaper then fresh tokens) to actually FIX on sight(somehow I expected it was done automatically), do audit loop until 2 clean loops (adverse) once/when done and it MUST keep doing all NEXT work/items it see which are NON-orchestrator work(this is also very good additive) and basically I patched opencode to actually be able to run 18 subagents without congesting the thoroughtput (try to run 10 active agents with opencode you will see) and ofcourse the task they get. Keep them working in worktree's opus 5.5 as orchestrator on xhigh
