> I do not know how you can do it on a Pro plan with Claude Opus 4.7 which is 7.5x more in terms of limit consumption and any small to medium size codebase would easily consume your limits in just the planning phase up to 50% in a single prompt

I also don’t understand because all I ever hear is people saying $100 Max plan is the minimum for serious work. I made 3-4 plans today, I’m familiar with the codebase and pointed the LLM in the direction where it needed to go. I described the functionality I wanted which wasn’t a huge rewrite, it touched like 4 files of which one was just a module of pydantic models. But one plan was 30% of usage and I had this over two sessions because I got a reset. I did read and understand everything line of code so that part takes me some time to do.
