Hi everyone, just bought Pro sub to try CC out. Assigned medium complexity task - refactor one of my small services (very simple PSU controller, < 2k LoC python code). Switched to Opus for the planning, relatively simple prompt. The whole limit got blown before before it carried out any meaningful implementation. Looking back at it, should have probably used Sonnet, but still this is weird to me that a single task with Opus just blows the entire short-term budget, without producing any result what so ever. 9% weekly consumed too. Any tips? This is kind of frustrating TBH, I bought Pro to evaluate CC against my current workflow with Codex using GPT5.4 - I never managed to even hit the weekly limit with Codex at all, and it’s performance is amazing so far - was hoping for something similar or better with CC but to no avail lol. I’ve seen a lot of similar posts lately, is there some update to the limits or is this normal? Thanks, also appreciate any tips on how to use CC to not repeat this. submitted by /u/OkSoup6307
