Are you monitoring the size of your context windows? As they grow, so does the cost of every operation performed in that state.
replyAnthropic had a special extra usage promotion going on during non-peak hours that ended recently.
replyThey didn’t do a great job of explaining it. I wonder how many people got used to the 2X limits and now think Anthropic has done something bad by going back to normal
They also reduced the peak time limits, so it's not just the promotion.
replyNaw, it's not that. This is business-day usage for all of it.
replyIrrelevant. I had at least ten times more usage then at any time
replyCould it also have anything to do with Anthropic being deliberately opaque about usage in general?
replyI've been using Codex extensively, 5.4 at "Extra High" and yet to hit a limit. The $20 plan
replyIt very much depends on the workloads. If you inspect existing code (that somebody else wrote over the years) usage runs out quickly. If you are building your own greenfield stuff the sky is the limit.

replyThat's EXACTLY and ALL I've been doing!
Using Codex and Claude both side by side to view my Godot components framework open source project (link in profile)
Claude has been..ugh.. bad, to put it mildly, on the same content and the same prompts.
They've been running a "double credits" promo for several weeks, which expired on the first of this month.
