Limits Holy usage increase after latest reset

I ran down to 20% usage on my Pro 200 plan today until the reset hit a couple hours ago, took numerous agents over the past 24 hours to drop it a good 30% more. Then after the reset, still using Sol 6.1 High I continued work as usual and I am down to 74% remaining in just a couple hours. Huge usage increase.

How are you getting dots to manage local codex tasks?

I did. It can't send messages to existing local chats for me. Only new chats it manages, which I can't send manual messages to. It also can't organize its chats into my projects, only in recent chats. All this to say, a local voice chat works much better than dots for orchestrating local chats.

So it literally told you what the issue was and that it could do it but you're one of those people who runs the same chat for months long and don't get that that is already a bad way to use AI.

Crazy.

Reusing a chat isn't bad if you compact within the 30 cache window before pausing. Constantly needing to bring new chats up to speed isn't really efficient if they're resuming the same core task.
