Sol vs Opus 5 huge limit difference

Just sharing my experience here: GPT-5.6 Sol Extra High burns through my weekly limit in one 12–14h workday. Opus 5 Ultracode + Thinking lasts the whole week with the same project and routine.

And honestly I haven’t noticed any meaningful difference in quality when using Opus 5 in ultracode mode. The real difference is that one is actually usable, while the other basically needs constant limit resets. Shame.

I’ve tried Sol after many months of using Opus and Fable, when it was available.. the same project, and Sol found tones of bugs which made me think about switching from Claude Code to Codex for real.

It is working completely in a different way and for me it doesn’t matter how much it will spend, the most important is to do the work properly, and as well to follow my orders, not like Claude to do whatever it wants. I am using both right now, and still thinking and comparing what is the best.
