This hasn't been my experience either. I personally find the max plan is very generous for day-to-day usage. And I don't even use compact manually.

However, when I tried out the SuperPower skill and had multiple agents working on several projects at the same time, it did hit the 5-hour usage limit. But SuperPower hasn't been very useful for me and wastes a lot of tokens. When you want to trade longer running time for high token consumption, you only get a marginal increase in performance.

So people, if you are finding yourself using up tokens too quickly, you probably want to check your skills or MCPs etc.

As a regular user, I hit these walls so often. I am experimenting with local model and open code. I am hoping to see some good results with qwen3 coder
