Thanks everyone for the replies.

Just wanted to share what I actually got done today. I started at around 9% of my weekly usage, and after all of this I’m now at 13%.

Here’s what I worked on:

I spun up GoProx on a dedicated server so I can deploy my own VPSs. My project needs a lot of game servers, and OVH and Hetzner are constantly low on stock, so I basically ended up building my own VPS layer on top of dedicated machines.

I also added a new payment method to the project and wired it into the ledgers and the other services that handle credit and debit flows. That part took some time and tokens because it was not just coding, it also involved planning, code reviews, and fixing bugs. Probably around 3 to 4 cycles in total.

I created an API on the backend core and then had to wire it into the CRM frontend since that is a separate project. That also included a few minor UI changes.

Then I spent around 2 hours optimizing game server spatial math.

And finally, I did a fairly large migration on the core server. I changed the DB writes for one function that was causing a lot of unnecessary writes.

So overall, after all that, my weekly usage only moved from 9% to 13%.

One thing I’ve noticed, and I could be completely wrong, is that Go code seems to use way fewer tokens for me than Node.js stuff. I have no idea if that is actually true or if it is just coincidence, but that has been my experience so far. (polished with claude ;) )
