I am doing these things to avoid using all tokens and hitting rate limits in a day:

- I plan everything in ChatGPT. I provide project trees and create an execution plan for Claude Code, Codex, or Copilot agents. - I clearly say I do not want the agent to explain what it will do or what it did. I only want "I finished". That saves extra tokens. My projects include tools to gather file contents in bulk. A single command like bun copy-paste FILES="<file1> <file2>" lets the agent collect many files into one file. - I also provide a bun create-empty-files command so the agent can create all needed files at once instead of one by one.

With this setup, I managed to build 4 major features (more than 80 file edits or creations) using the 3 daily resets on a standard plan.
