Pulling the rug very slowly so that no-one notices and finding new ways to blow up your usage limits very quickly:

First it was "search agents" consuming the limits.

Secondly, then it was "reasoning tokens" doing that.

Third, it was "planning" mode for long horizon tasks.

Forth, adding "/goal mode" + 1M context for auto non-stop token consumption.

Fifth, "sub-agents" in parallel doing all of the above.

Then, Anthropic told us to use "loops" instead of prompting.

Recently "auto mode" was switched on by default, with sub-agents used by default on Fable.

Now, Anthropic is slowly reducing your limits in their closed-source harness.
