Same. I hit limits after 45 minutes. I'm on a measly Pro plan. I'm usually building small, open source projects, often from scratch. I only work on these projects in a 2-hour window in the morning. This is my "free time" development. I hope this change helps, because I was days away from switching back to Codex, though I like Claude Code a bit better these days.

I also hope that the fact I had OpenClaw in my sandbox once is not why I hit these limits so damn fast. I don't use it anymore and I've tried to rid my sandbox of anything "openclaw" but it is in my git history in various places on various projects. Claude doesn't seem to be transparent about this limitation.

You should definitely try:

- Codex

- OpenCode Go

- Ollama Cloud

All are very useful, still a subscription, but with higher usage limits.

Specific providers like GLM also provide subscriptions like Z.ai.

Using DeepSeek, Kimi etc. through OpenRouter or from them directly is also great, here you pay per token but it's still more usage overall.

Are you using haiku for most tasks? I'm in the Google ecosystem so I'm curious how it is on the other side.
