Earlier quoted context omitted.

Not really. With Opus 4 you will burn into the thousand a month with serious usage. I tested it yesterday and 5 hours of use was 60$. If I extrapolate that you will easily hit 1K+.

Are you comparing using opus via API based usage vs opus via the $200/mo plan?

I didn't know anthropic offered a fixed price version.

Pretty sure this is there to prevent this[1] from happening to them

I'm so excited to see a real competitor to Claude Code! Gemini CLI, while decent, does not have a $200/month pricing model and they charge per API access - Codex is the same. I'm trying to get into the https://cloud.cerebras.ai/ to try the $50/month plan but I can't even get in.

This doesn’t feel like a competitor. Amp does tho.

It’s a true statement - no weekly limits, just a daily limit. Easier to work with when you can only get locked out of your tool for 23h59m

To put this into perspective, github copilot Business license is 300 "premium" requests a MONTH.

Tried this out with Cline using my own API key (Cerebras is also available as a provider for Qwen3 Coder via via openrouter here: https://openrouter.ai/qwen/qwen3-coder ) and realized that without caching, this becomes very expensive very quickly. Specifically, after each new tool call, you're sending the entire previous message history as input tokens - which are priced at $2/1M via the API just like output tokens.…

This seems to be rate limited by message not token so the lack of cache may matter less

That's a CO2 emissions leader board!
