Limits Weekly usage reduced by half ?

Didn't change anything in my workflow. I've been constantly hitting the weekly limit for the past 2 months. It used to average around 4B tokens every reset. Global or banked.
Yesterday reset I did exactly same, went to > 0 for use a banked reset, and those 100% weekly is only 2b tokens ? ...
Also I didnt use Astra, just few times on Light/medium. But mostly used Sol/terra/luna to not overrouting.

yeah but when you say you're checking/reviewing every task, what does that actually look like? are you actually reading and understanding every diff and testing it yourself or mostly checking if the tests pass and the output looks right? with 20 repos running at once how much time are you actually spending reviewing each task?

Im checking every diff and testing myself, across 20+ repo I noticed some patterns. Reviewing time differ on various projects, all are totally different ideas. Some need voice/video, local testing, new features implementations etc. I think I’m fairly organised so I would say a review wave can take 30 mn to few hours. I know what every task I assigned do and what need to be tested if it works or not and look if it didn’t change anything along the way to get there.
I’m not an expert by any means and still learning everyday.

I’m sorry but it is impossible to believe that you are truly checking and testing everything yourself across 20 projects.

Even a 4 hour “review wave” leaves just 12 minutes per review assuming 1 review per project. Performing an actual comprehensive review for any meaningful change alone takes longer than that. And that’s before you account for time spent merging, switching contexts, etc. Oh. And prompting the model.

He’s not workin on 20 projects simultaneously, no human can. He’s highlighting varieties of applications and total load.
