  "transcript": "I just prepped a task for Astra using Grok 4.6. I wrote a solid prompt and documented everything carefully so Astra could just jump in and implement it.\n\nBut after just one 5-minute task, my session limit was already down to 30%. \n\nHow are people actually using this model? If I hadn't spoon-fed it all the context beforehand, I’d probably still be sitting here waiting for it to finish reasoning.\n\nThe Model itself is great but really unusable for me.\n\n\n\n--- Top Comments ---\n\n\n[59 upvotes] you don't. \n\n[30 upvotes] I did a task (which I wrote using 5.6 high) used 100% of my 5hr limit in < 15 mins. Resumed after the 5hrs and it used it all again in less than 20. \n\nI think im sticking with terra and sol. I mean I pay £20 a month so I can’t really complain. And  I just use it for hobby coding and messing about.  But it is not practical is it. \n\n[9 upvotes] Ask sol high via chat not work to make the prompt for Astra based  on what you want done . Use Astra medium as the architect and Astra light as the reviewer .  Do not use subagents . Use grok 4.6 high for all of the code implementation. See if that works better for you .",
