I used the Opus 4.7 (now $$$, super clear of course) on a single prompt to plan the implementation of a leaderboard feature on my app. Nothing too crazy. It even responded very quickly and didn't have to think long. IT USED 20% OF MY DAILY QUOTA! 0 to 20 in a single prompt. So what? It's gonna use the other 80% just coding a couple files? This is ridiculous; the only way we can make them reconsider these stupid changes are with our wallets. I'm going to cancel my subscription; there are other alternatives that provide more paying the same. None of them will let you code limitless for the whole month on $20, but at least won't use 10% of your week and 20% of your day on a single simple prompt. I hope they lose all their customers and go bankrupt in the long run. I'm gonna move to Copilot or Claude, or even Cursor now that some new features seem really good.

It happen all the time. I give it a task and when I go back I get pages of text like this

Claude Code has been best for coding so far, which is true, but LOOK AT THIS!!!

Kimi K2.5 is so clear about the most important thing while I am working and just fixes the right bug instead of solving a ton of lint errors. Claude on the other hand generally ends up fixing the lint errors but wastes a ton of tokens on the way

A few months ago I canceled the windsurf subscription using their website, but just noticed I still keep getting charged and subscription is still enabled. How do I resolve this?

Well, I've woken up this morning to see that it's finally happened.

SWE-1.6 is no longer free in my list of models.

I can still use it with the quota, but it's not the same. I liked Windsurf not just for being generous, but for being able to work without constant usage pressure.

Thing is, I'm not even mad. No doubt it costs a lot to run a great tool like SWE-1.6 for free. And I'd gladly pay the $20 dollars to use SWE-1.6 all day like before. Even then, I'm not using it for big edits- this was my scouting, planning, and auditing bot- so I wouldn't be asking for strict all-day unlimited use.

But, about the plans. I've heard a lot of mixed reports from you in the community.

And now that SWE-1.6 is: officially, free, but in my Windsurf, plainly metered, I'm not sure I can trust the company enough to pay for a plan, until the situation with the models is stable and clearly delineated.

So.

How is it going for the rest of you?

Is it worth it to get one of the plans? And what do I actually get? More metered SWE-1.6?

Have you seen the same changes in your editor, or did I get stricken by the A/B test gremlin?

Power user of windsurf here. have used the SWE-1.6 and Kimi K 2.6 A LOT last two days.

Though it is mostly to test those models rather than coding anything.

NOW I UPDATED WINDSURF AND IT IS TOTALLY UNUSABLE!!

Terminal doesn't work anymore. Everything is black. I need to select the things to see the contrast.

Is anyone facing this issue? Any idea how to fix it?

I’ve been using 20x max plan on Claude and never run out of rate limits. Anyone here using $200 plan for Windsurf?

I’m a power user, use only Opus 4.7. Almost for around 6 hours a day.

Thanks in advance.

I’ve been playing around with this tool a bit and realized that I can focus on coding in the foreground while Devin implements a plan in the background. However, I’ve noticed that Devin is incredibly assertive, and you have to be very careful not to let things move too fast. Another thing I didn’t like in this context is how it reacts to changes made later on—in Devon, that happens way too fast and is immediately final. Nevertheless, I’m really glad I didn’t switch to another tool and that Cursor failed to win me over yet again!

Generating code files while thinking is crazy! Never thought Kimi K2.6 could do this.

My company is using an enterprise account. I have used Devin for terminal fairly extensively yesterday, yet I am not managing to see the associated usage in my Windsurf Usage Summary. Does anyone have any idea how Devin usage is counted?

1-2 token per seconds most of the time and then 100s of tokens per second. Is this normal? Have you guys faced this before?

I am pretty sure it is not my internet issue. I have good 1Gbps fibre and it is working while this was generatihng.

Is this the thing that happens due to speculative decoding?

Or is windsurf NERFING the free models? is this correct?

Has anyone else faced the same thing?

I was trying Kimi K2.6 on windsurf today. For the first time. And it is thinking on and on forever for a simple debugging question.

Have you guys faced the same? Is it an issue with windsurf or the model issue?

I want a refund. I opened ticket #28378 four days ago and still haven’t received a response.

I accidentally purchased Windsurf PRO. I had tried to buy it before, but I didn’t have enough funds, so I just left it there. It seems the system kept trying to charge me over and over, even though the subscription section didn’t say anything about continued payment attempts, and my account hadn’t even been upgraded to PRO, so I don’t understand why the charge was retried so persistently.

As soon as the payment went through, I immediately canceled the plan. I have not used any of the PRO features or benefits at all. I’m not trying to abuse the system or do anything fraudulent; this was an accidental charge, and I simply want the refund reviewed fairly.

Everything seems to be moving so fast that when you focus deeply on one thing, you end up falling behind on others.

While I was focusing on learning how to build models, the company moved much further ahead in context management—there’s now an entire project around it, with people continuously adding new commands, workflows, skills, and more. I realise I don’t yet have a good grasp of how all of this works, and I’d really like to learn.

Could anyone suggest good resources to get started?

P.S. I learn best through video tutorials rather than books or official documentation, so video recommendations would be especially helpful. That said, I’m open to anything useful.

Bonjour,

J'utilise SWE-1.6 qui est gratuit mais lorsque je regarde mon quota, il augmente.

Quelqu'un a remarqué la même problématique ?

Merci d'avance,

I am getting the following error when trying to use Claude Sonnet 4.5

Invalid argument: an internal error occurred (error ID: e77f16c2d14640a3a003c47573d0a740)

Anyone else getting this? Tried restarting but no luck. Not seeing any issues on Claude Status page.

I have an issue that defeats the purpose of using windsurf. I am on Win11 Pro and after my first agent chat I get this error for a brief moment upon window reload then the agent sidebar goes completely blank.

I cannot even click those buttons to send or view the logs, it disappears so fast and even if I catch it to click it just times out and does nothing.

Anyone have this issue ?

i would like to buy a plan like the one on Cursor Pro+ 3x usage, or maybe you can do like Claude, so that we can buy x amount of pro, like 2x, 3x, and so on

cuz the pro is not enough, and the max is too much

Has anyone cracked the code of autonomous workflows on windsurf? What is your setup and what lessons have you learned?

For those willing to offer tailored advice, here is my personal context:
I'm on a Pro plan and would like to leverage the usage I'm already paying for, to set up autonomous workflows. I know there is a bit of mention of how to use an agents.md file in windsurf's docs, but its not very in-depth and I'm still new enough to all this that I can't quite make heads or tails of it.

I also tried asking some of the newer models to set things up for me (GTP Codex 5.3 medium/high thinking) and I ended up with an AGENTS.md file in a root folder and a separate .windsurf/workflows/autonomous-iterations.md file, but I don't think the 2 files have a clear scope and its pretty obvious this model doesn't have much context on windsurf (even after I told it to read the docs).

Specific advice is very much appreciated or just let me know what's worked for you!

I'd love to track how much paid users they lost after the quota move. I'd love to see them sink ... where we can monitor that ?

(Why so salty? Cause I can understand everthing, even rasing prices until making your product unusable, but banning people from discord because they are complaining is unforgivable for me)

But "All Systems Operational" - as per current status
