I dont use automated agent workflows or anything, I just use clause as a pair programmer of sorts. A month or so ago I used claude Opus 4.6 for 2-4 hours on API pricing and racked up $20 in spend, which surprised me since that was much higher than my usual.

I dont know about $10,000, but i can see hitting $1,000 pretty easily if you aren't looking at the costs.
