Ask HN: Claude gets over my 5h limit today in 10 minutes?

3 points by majkinetor 3 hours ago

I do everything I did before. Frequent compact and clear of session on new tasks. This behavior let me work for around 4 hours without any problem.

Today, with 200K context and several mock rounds it got on 30-70% in 10 minutes. Other session running tests got to 100% in 15 minutes.

I remember this was happening few months back. Is there something that changed, or is it Anthrophic going wild with customers ?

Since today, I use Claude Code Remote Control server, and work in browser (no terminals open). Claude tells me that is still on subscription prices.

I crossed my limit too this week. It was because I set Opus to Max by accident. Normally I use Sonnnet or Opus on the Normal setting which is fine.

    I use it on Low or Medium as recommended. It just went nuts.
