Today, I will commit a new Auto Mode (with DuckDB) that uses machine learning to understand your actual token limits, not hardcoded solution.

#83Tool also says I used 198% of my max5 plan %).
I guess it expect opus usage and I was usin sonnet (after the first 20%, the auto thing)

#84nice ship! I wrote a blog post on how to observe trends over time for a team via OTel, but I prefer your method for individual development! https://ma.rtin.so/posts/monitoring-claude-code-with-datadog...

#86I really like this idea as I find Claude's transparency frustrating. Claude code's killer features revolve around better tools to manage context and limits vs the desktop app (compact and the % remaining until auto compact), but it's not enough. If I can offer any advice, it's that the high use of emojis in a project readme (at least for me) looks so unprofessional and makes me worry that a project was vibe -coded in…
The irony of comments like this on software designed entirely for ai coding...

#87Today, I will commit a new Auto Mode (with DuckDB) that uses machine learning to understand your actual token limits, not hardcoded solution.
I'm working on a wrapper for these terminal agent coders that reads directly from them... you might want to consider that approach? I hope to have it here on ShowHN as soon as its better tested but email me if you want in on the private beta :)
how about making it a tool that claude can use directly?

#89Very neat! Is the limit on Pro really only 7k tokens? So less than 7k words? I feel like I get more out of that. It feels like that would blow up pretty quickly with an ongoing chat, but I never hit that. Or is this a Claude Code specific limit? I haven't used Claude Code extensively yet.
pro is the $20/mo plan that they recently started allowing access to claude code.. but i’ve heard users hit the rate limit with a few queries.. so imo that sounds about right. the chat interface has its own limits separate from claude code.
While my plan didn't pan out, cuz it was way too effective, I can confidently say that I'm going through 3-6k tokens per prompt on average, and usually get around 3 hours of usage before I'm hitting the rate limit.
The limit is probably closer to 300k then Also the chat interface doesn't have a separate limit, once you hit it via Claude code, you cannot use the website either anymore.
Maybe it's a 7k limit per prompt? Dunno if I exceeded that before

#90My total tokens used since I started using Claude Code on May 27th was 1,374,439,311 worth around $3397.34.
