When I've tried it using API-rate billing I've saved on $$ on the tasks where I split planning+execution into Sol+Terra or Terra+Luna even. I wasn't paying attention to the token count, I was paying attention to the spend.

replyWhen I do this, I can have it use cheap subagents with models like Luna to read the relevant files.
Do you have the cheap models summarize the files? How do they get the relevant information to the bigger models?
replyMaybe not, but I like to review the plan anyway so that I'm less surprised by what it actually did.
