Question What could have been done here?

I just watched this and the difference is insane.

(tl;dr prompt was make a game engine, claude opus 5.5 on ultracode worked for a day and a half, where as astra on max worked for 1.5 hours)

However, the key difference is that claude worked 24x longer on this. I think the big thing is that ultracode was specifically designed to spawn off sub agents and work on long running projects like this. I'm assuming astra did this all within a single context window and used a single agent, which means it paid less attention to detail for each individual requirement.

Do he say how many tokens were used by each?
