It's not lack of self-awareness, they know what they are doing
Yes, that's what I was going for.

Yes and no. It's bad because of shorter context but it does have auto-compaction which was much better than Claude. If you provide it documentation to work from and re-reference, it works long-running. Honestly - 'every inch of IQ delta' seems to be worth it over anything else. I'm a long time Claude Code supporter - and I'm ashamed to admit how instantly I dropped it when discovering how much better 5.4 is. I don't…
I tried to use 5.4 for something pretty straightforward - create scripts to automate navigating a game UI and capturing the network traffic. 5.4 was super frustrating, constantly stopping and waiting for feedback etc, even after telling it to never wait and just iterate/debug. I quit and switched to Opus 4.6 and it did much more of the work by itself.
I've never run into that problem, but these were coding solutions in codex with a strong plan, steps to work towards.
It could be that if you're using massive tokens on a 'plan' then then want to limit u in a way, or even if the objective is not perfectly clear they don't want semi-random token use.
See if the token/sub solution behaves differently. Make sure that when it 'compacts' that it re-reads your instructions clearly.

#433LLMs and LLM providers are massive black boxes. I get a lot of value from them and so I can put up with that to a certain extent, but these new "products"/features that Anthropic are shipping are very unappealing to me. Not because I can't see a use-case for them, but because I have 0 trust in them: - No trust that they won't nerf the tool/model behind the feature - No trust they won't sunset the feature (the graveya…
The problem is without a platform Anthropic has no stack and will just be bought up by Google when the bubble pops. Same with OpenAI, without some sort of moat, their product requires third party hardware in third party datacenters and they'll be bought by Microsoft. Alphabet doesn't have this issue. Google doesn't need Gemini to win the "AI product" race. It needs Gemini to make Search better at retaining users agai…
If this is so, why do I find (for scientific research on biomedicine topics, primarily) that Claude’s results are much better than say Gemini’s? I hear the same opinion from others in biotech and big pharma.

I was pretty sure that claude -p would always be fine, but I looked at the TOS and it is a bit unclear. It says in the prohibited use section: > Except when you are accessing our Services via an Anthropic API Key or where we otherwise explicitly permit it, to access the Services through automated or non-human means, whether through a bot, script, or otherwise. So it seems like using a harness or your own tools to cal…
15? Per month? What’s even the point?
It’s per rolling 24 hour period

#435Re: Claude Code Routines
#436Yeah the only issue is that it is a major vendor lock-in + hazy perspective, so it is essentially unfit for any "serious" processes (read: mission critical / where you have to invest time and effort). I guess you could simply copy-paste the prompt from there in case of emergency. That is, if they allow you to.
Other than that it is a really neat utility and saves some time. However, I feel like there can be OpenClaw moment for this as well. Somebody simply needs to create an open-source version that supports all of the agents and models.

yup, after the token-increase from CC from two weeks ago, I'm now consistently filling the 1M context window that never went above 30-40% a few days ago. Did they turn it off? I used to see the Co-Authored by Opus 4.6 (1M Context Window) in git commits, now the advert line is gone. I never turned it on or off, maybe the defaults changed but /model doesn't show two different context sizes for Opus 4.6 I never asked fo…
They are now literally blaming users for using their product as advertised: https://x.com/lydiahallie/status/2039800718371307603 --- start quote --- Digging into reports, most of the fastest burn came down to a few token-heavy patterns. Some tips: • Sonnet 4.6 is the better default on Pro. Opus burns roughly twice as fast. Switch at session start. • Lower the effort level or turn off extended thinking when you don't…

Man, this just bit me too. I started playing with OC over the weekend (in a VM), and the spend was INSANE even though I wasn't doing anything. I don't see this as very useful as an "assistant" that wanders around and anticipates my needs. But I do like the job system, and the ability to make skills, then run them on a schedule or in response to events. But when I looked into what it was doing behind my back, 48 times…
I can recommend Hermes Agent as an alternative to OpenClaw which actually works well, is properly architected, and doesn’t break three times a week.
Oh man... they even have a Nix flake in the repo. That pretty much sells it right there. :D
