I like this solution, I had tinkered with the Otel hoping to get un-redacted prompt and responses but had no luck. Did you perhaps get deeper into what data was useful?

You can get the un-redacted prompts via the OTel event logger[0], but unfortunately it won't give you responses. You could open up a GitHub issue to request that addition! Disclaimer - I work at Anthropic but not on Claude Code, the team is responsive via GH issues though! [0] https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/monitoring-us...

Plastic bags and papers straws is not about CO2 emissions and I wish people would stop repeating this like it's some "gotcha", it's about landfill and natural area pollution and damage to wildlife and natural areas, and that's how it's always been talked about by policy people who have advocated on this stuff. Have you walked a beach in the last decade?

This makes sense and I'm with you, people that are polluting beaches and natural areas should face harder punishments. That being said I'm missing plastic straws for drinking cold coffee.

Nothing stopping you from carrying your own reusable straw around with you.

Finally, most of the (local, not even thinking about the developing world) pollution is not deliberate. It blows in from other places, usually. I live rural and I'm continually picking up plastic garbage from my ditch or back forest or fields that blows in from the nearby highway and roads, especially after garbage pickup day.

Production needs to be severely curtailed.

For a reference point, it says my max session limit in the past was ~337,492 tokens and I have the Max20 plan and 99% use Opus. My total tokens used since I started using Claude Code on May 27th was 1,374,439,311 worth around $3397.34.

1. Don’t you hit rate limits on Opus? Don’t you find it slow compared to sonnet?

I have not ever actually hit the rate limit as far as I'm aware. I have gotten the "approaching Opus usage limit" a couple times but have not hit it.
