Great write up! Roughly how many Claude tokens are you using per month with this workflow? What’s your monthly API costs?

Also what do you mean by “I really want someone to solve this problem in a way that makes coding with an LLM a multiplayer game. Not a solo hacker experience.” ?

most of this is aider / codegen:

Total tokens in: 26,729,994 Total tokens out: 1,553,284

Last month anthropic bill was $89.30

I want to program with a team, together. not a group of people individually coding with an agent, and then managing merges. I have been playing a lot with merging team context - but haven't gotten too far yet.

Have you tried using OpenHands so you can just give it the todo.md until it gets stuck/is finished?

More or less, I tried out Cursor for the first time a week ago. So very much in the newbie stage and looking to learn
