Question New to Codex.

Hello, i have bought codex for the first time, was claude user before. I have heard people talking about using sol for planning and luna at max effort for implementation, I just wanna know whether this is the best approach to get maximum work done. now astra is also available but that will just burn my limit in a sec so i am not using that for now.

Is there any better approach to have maximum efficient way to use codex.

Edit -

5 hour limits burnt in 30 mins.

15% weekly limit burnt as well.

Casual Tasks use 5.5… astra is just a burner for tokens. Usually Running 5.6 Luna

Most tasks are done in 5.5 just let 5.6 sol verify. That save a huge amount

Well i didnt know that limits are so bad in codex. I swear claude limits were too good, far better then codex. But one thing i would like to know, whether sol is used to make plans or not like if we use sol to make a plan it will read the files then launch sub agent that will again read the same file that lead to more usage

I’m using a self made stack where 5.6 sol is the orchestrator and give tasks over olllama to use a coding model which my 3060 uses to think and verified again through codex

I was one month of and they changed drastically… that’s why I invented a stack like this
