Even with Opus 4.8 I have to try pretty hard to maintain 100% weekly usage. I'm actively trying not to be efficient at this point.
Now that the ban is lifted, max effort Fable 5 is gonna solve this problem quite neatly. Fable to plan and review, Sonnet for the implementation.
Wait, never mind that. Subscribers will only have Fable for a week.
Why are you optimising for token use rather than getting whatever tasks you're trying to do done? Max effort Opus will happily sit there talking to itself for five minutes fixating on every tiny detail while Sonnet or even Haiku will just blast through the problem and be ready for the next one in seconds.
Because I'm paying $100/month for this, so I absolutely want to use all of those dollars. Any leftover weekly usage is a gift to Anthropic.
I am getting things done. I've made major progress on my projects, and even started new ones. My most requested tasks are: code review, brainstorming and research. The fixation on tiny details is exactly what I'm paying for.
