Hi, I’m a Solution Architect with a background in software development (PHP, Rails, Obj-C, Java, Kotlin, AWS, Docker, etc.). However, I haven’t written any code for several years since my promotion. I was using Gemini to help me with my work but recently switched and using Claude Cowork with Pro plan ($20/month) to write architectural documents, estimations, and proposals, but I never used it for coding until today because Slack lists that we are using are so slow, and my employer doesn’t want to pay for ClickUp or JIRA, he kept telling me to use Google Sheet instead. (LOL) So I decided to build a task management system and will self hosting on our server for my team. I started by brainstorming with Claude about the tech stack, database models, and features like notifications, conversation, Slack integration etc. Since there are many features, Claude suggested dividing the work into 11 plans. For example, Plan 1 was project setup, Plan 2 was Google SSO, and so on. I agreed. Claude then asked if I wanted to use “subagents” or another option. I chose subagents and started Plan 1. It went well. Plan 2 was also smooth; I got Google SSO working quickly, and the database schema and seeds were correct. However, I got stuck on Plan 3 because it is more complex. Claude explained that since I chose subagents, the main agent must write very detailed instructions for them because they don’t have the context of our earlier brainstorm. And because this plan is complex, I hit the session limit in less than 20 minutes and had to wait 3 hours. After the reset, I hit the limit again in just 10 minutes. Is this happening because I chose the subagent option? And if I want to keep my Pro subscription and not upgrade to Max, how can I resolve this issue? Thank you for every suggestion. submitted by /u/Tar_Tw45
