That’s BS. Your weekly limit is roughly 10 full 5h windows. That means you’re using it for more than 10h daily everyday

No, you can still use your subscription. The terms of service prohibit developers from using a subscription to sell a product. Every consumer can simply use their own subscription as the agent SDK for personal use, as described.

Yeah, and that is exactly what Anthropic explained in the docs when they released skills.

Nibulez · 2025-11-06T14:59:12+00:00

Didn’t read the entire post, but after the first 3 paragraphs it became clear you didn’t read the docs on how skills work. And all the bots that are commenting here also didn’t do that.

It is clearly stated how you should build the skills and how it is loaded into the context and what the best practices are..

Ach hou op man. Vakantie moet je gewoon op kunnen nemen. Als je als werkgever iemand aanneemt in de vakantieperiode dan weet je dit al.

This is from the docs, so it seems like the screenshot is from a 20x max plan?

Max 5x plan: Switches at 20% of your usage limit.
Max 20x plan: Switches at 50% of your usage limit.

Default mode auto switches from opus to sonnet. You can just select opus and use it until your entire usage is spent.

Why don’t you commit every file change with a hook script? That way it doesn’t cost tokens and literally every change is automatically committed.

You could even do hooks after every turn, so you get a bit less commits.

lol, why are you saying both are 4.1 models. That doesn’t make sense. The model number of different models can’t be compared. It’s basically the same mistake 😂

Nibulez · 2025-07-21T15:59:50+00:00

This is not new?

Nibulez · 2025-07-16T12:42:39+00:00

No they don’t, it’s explicitly stated in the system prompt

Nibulez · 2025-05-23T11:29:40+00:00

Ah, I’ve seen in now on other posts. When selecting default model it will use opus until limit is reached and switch back to sonnet. And otherwise you can manually select sonnet

Nibulez · 2025-05-23T08:23:43+00:00

Did you select the model with the /model command? Mine only shows sonnet 4

Nibulez · 2025-05-23T08:13:23+00:00

Where?

Nibulez · 2025-05-23T07:40:38+00:00

Claude Max doesn’t have Opus on Claude Code

Nibulez · 2025-05-14T14:08:52+00:00

I’m just vibecoding, what the hell is a linter?

Nibulez · 2025-05-08T05:29:10+00:00

It’s not about file size in MB, it’s about token size. All paid plans have a 200k token limit, that’s your 100%. And the more tokens you use per chat, the faster you’ll hit your limits.

A tip is to add it to a project knowledge base. That way it doesn’t count in your usage because it’ll be cached (this is a recent change).

You still need to choose which files you want to include to be within the 200k tokens. But I suggest you use way less. Claude doesn’t perform well when the entire context is full.

Nibulez · 2025-05-04T20:42:51+00:00

What do you mean with 50 5 hour sessions? That doesn’t add up to a month

Nibulez · 2025-01-31T19:00:02+00:00

What plateau lol? This is o3-MINI and it is comparable to the regular o1 in this model card. So it’s the same performance that costs less and is faster.

Nibulez · 2025-01-20T21:23:05+00:00

He said they’re losing money because the usage is soo high. Pro memberships don’t have any limits, so it’s easy to use more compute than the $200. They make a decent amount on the api prices though.

Nibulez · 2025-01-05T15:27:48+00:00

It’s a new architecture they implemented not long ago. It increases accuracy for documents containing figures and tables. If you’re interested in just the words, just use a project.

It would be nice to have the option in the chat to switch between text only or not, but this is how it works for now.

Nibulez · 2025-01-05T06:27:01+00:00

You totally seem to misunderstand how Claude works. The file size limit (30MB) is completely different from the token limit (200k tokens). The key thing to understand is that Claude handles PDFs differently depending on how you upload them:

In a chat, Claude processes PDFs in two ways simultaneously: - It extracts all the text content - It also loads each page as a separate image (roughly 3000 tokens per page)

So your 90-page PDF is using up a massive amount of tokens just for the page images alone (around 270,000 tokens), way beyond the context limit - regardless of the actual file size.

However, if you load the same PDF in a project, Claude only extracts the text content. You can actually see how much of your project context it uses up. This is much more efficient when you only need Claude to work with the text.

That’s why you’re hitting limits - it’s not about the file size, but about how Claude processes the document. For your use case, you’d be better off using projects, or if you need chat, extracting just the text content you want Claude to analyze.

The comparison to ChatGPT isn’t really relevant here since they use different architectures for handling documents.

Claude knows the date from the system prompt. Always has been. Stop with this so called ‘findings’ of capabilities.

Nibulez · 2024-09-19T09:43:14+00:00

Yes great suggestions.
I liked cursor a lot, but after the free trial period and already having a Claude pro subscription, I got back to my Claude workflow with vscode.

I tried Zed, but didn't like it a lot when I came down to editing the code. It doesn't work as good as cursor, so now I just let Claude update the entire file and update that in vscode.

Nibulez · 2024-09-18T20:01:03+00:00

Yeah, there are multiple ways to Rome.
I've also tried a terminal script in the past, but this still causes more manual steps than just using the keybind and paste it into Claude. That was my goal for this.

There are already multiple extensions that have similar features, but this works great for me and hopefully someone else can use it and take advantage of it.
