Anyone have good tips or resources on token management best practices? Because I’ve hit the limiter with one single prompt now on Opus 4.7. What I’m reading so far seems to be: -selective use of models based on task complexity -encoding large repos into more digestible and relevant data structures to reduce constant reingesting -ask Claude to limit output to X tokens (as output tokens are more expensive) -reduce flai…
This is the rugpull that is starting to push me to reconsider my use of Claude subscriptions. The "free ride" part of this being funded as a loss leader is coming to a close. While we break away from Claude, my hope is that I can continue to send simple problems to very smart local llms (qwen 3.6, I see you) and reserve Claude for purely extreme problems appropriate for it's extreme price.

I'm still with them cause the model is good, but yes, I'm noticing my limits burning up somewhat faster on the 100 USD tier, I bet the 20 USD tier is even more useless. I wouldn't call it a rugpull, since it seems like there might be good technical reasons for the change, but at the same time we won't know for sure if they…

“Ok Claude, I bet you can’t hit the usage limit in one shot… let’s see what you got you little token gremlin” ;) I just asked it to do a security analysis in a subagent of an unmaintained browser extension and then go fix vulnerabilities it found so I can use it without worrying.
So it sounds like you were using it on auto mode then if it went ahead and fixed the vulnerabilities without additional turns? If so, that isn't really a single prompt.
