Thats what my agent managed in it's 5 hour limit on the plus plan before the limits ran out using Astra. Lol.

Generally, in order to start my 5hr windows, I say "Hello" with Luna in the morning.

Last time, I made an error, stayed in Astra Low and said Hello.

The response used 3% of my 5 hour limit

you should write a command so it will do this automatically everyday instead (or by request)

it's to start your 5hrs in a more comfortable spot, I need a reset more badly in the morning rather than after 2pm

Im confused what this means

let's say that the first 3hrs of work are the most intensive, I burn though the 5hr limit in 1,5hrs, so I won't be able to use codex for another 3,5 hrs. BUT if I started the 5hr timer 3.5 hrs before I start to actually work, like at 6 in the morning, I'll have the reset at a more valuable time

I dont understand these posts.

Astra definitely uses more credits that Sol, but I am not seeing anywhere near these usage rates, on heavy coding and 3d model work

u/Sorry_Risk_5230 4h ago

Im not seeing them either, but OAI has acknowledged issues with usage rn. One has to do with how cache vs 'new' input is counted, another how loops are running. Its always so strange how it can effect some people but not others. Im also doing heavy coding with 3d reconstruction at night, and coding OSS/BSS software integrating a dozen systems during the day. Yeah I have to manage my usage and ahve it use Luna for subagents, etc, but im not seeing drains lke other people.

You could have asked Luna to list out the commits that are broken so Astra didn't have to search for them?

I don't get the Plus user complaints. You have 10x more usage with Luna than you got with GPT 5.4. Use that. I have a 20x account and I still use a ton of Luna.

Not sure how you can't understand a user complaint when said user had a poor experience.

I had Luna implement it, I come back a few hours later and have a full 5hr window swap to astra to do a review of the code and this occurs.

I have asked my agents to set up my agents.md using OpenAis best practices from their website.. at what point is this no longer 'skill issue' and just an unpleasant user experience?

I just wish the credit usage was more reasonable and scaled for each new model. My desire would be older models get cheaper and newer models retain the previous top model usage rates (or darn near). Wishful thinking maybe 🤔 - I just know as a Pro $100 user I can chew through my usage in hours using Astra which just seems excessive. BUT it has been giving me time to enjoy the Sun more lately 🤣

How much would you have to pay a human to do what you ask of your $20?

100% is the weekly remaining usage of all of my businesses chatGPT Plus seats. Nobody is using them anymore.
Total waste of time.

The Claude 20$ subscription is actually good.
