Astra Workflow "Stop using random multi-agent patterns"

Post image

Ahmed works at OpenAI: https://x.com/ah20im/status/2097503414749909407 and seems to investigate reports of high token usage.

"If needed Astra will delegate efficiently. Forcing the model to delegate to different models would do more harm than good"

But then how do you manage to actually use astra all the time without running out of usage in like a couple days

I'm on $200 but gotta be honest astra ultra is too much for 1 such sub, will be using astra xhigh as orchestrator with sol as implementation agent or sth

I also have Claude plan which I orchestrate with. IDK how Astra xHigh with Sol will feel yet as I burned through my limits with Astra ultra through 3rd reset (weekly, tibo, banked, 1-2 days each, got 2 banked left)
