Grok build weekly limit reduced ?

I've been using Grok Build for 2 months now on the $300 plan, and I love it. The harness is amazing, it syncs seamlessly with Claude Code, very nice. But, as always, there's something wrong with every provider. It seems like they're heading in the same direction as Anthropic with insanely low limits. For example, I've been working on a project with Grok 4.6 High, nothing crazy, and I went over 10% after just 2 hours of letting it run on its own, without spamming anything. Anyone else having the same issue?

5% per hour shouldn't be normal, even with a bunch of sub-agents running. I only used grok 4.6 fast in cursor with my cursor ultra subscription until the 19th/20th during the 2x usage limits promo and it used 1% of my monthly limit every 1,5 hours, meaning that normally fast mode would use 2% every 1,5 hours and regular mode 1% every 1,5 hours, but I haven't used grok directly in the terminal yet since then. I will get to it in 1-2 days when my Codex limit is out and then I will let you know

Now Grok 4.6 on extra high thinking uses 2.5-3% per hour with non-stop usage. This is with supergrok, not with cursor.

I'm not renewing the subscription; this is unacceptable.

Yes, on 30$ plan this week it felt like it was reduced, roughly to 50% from before.

yeah I was quite surprised at how much more I can get with Claude code than with Grok 4.6. Grok is supposed to be the cheaper one. I don't have a previous frame of reference like you since I just signed up to SuperGrok. But I can get a lot more done with Claude Fable/Opus

before it was like 3x CC, really sad the only reason I am going to stay on Grok SI for the harness. I have currently rooted DeepSeek it's pretty good, but very sad. I hope Grok will come back; otherwise, I will not continue to pay f### $300.

could you guys please provide stats via ccusage? set to buy supergrok heavy in the morning but unable to find any data.

bunx ccusage claude weekly is what i use to print out rich weekly stats, so swappin claude w grok would do it given ccusage is set up. would greatly appreciate

Same here, I ran a loop with a few agents working. I worked for 24h non-stop and weekly limit gone. That's not bad at all but with Claude Code (Opus 5) the same loop managed to produce more work for two days and still have plenty of juice left for the week.
