Higher reasoning effort isn’t automatically better. Personally, I’ve never gone above High. I’d be curious how much time and money you’d save by sticking with High for most tasks and only going higher when there’s a measurable improvement in results. I wonder how much extra you’re spending for potentially diminishing returns. Did the password tip work out for you? Curious, if you got that working?

I’m constantly telling my Claude to push work down into deterministic code so that it stops doing work with sub agents but it’s mostly calling API tiers. My token cost has gone way down.

I think anthropic rolled out a command that sets up opus as the driver and sonnet as the subagent.
