Input tokens are cheap, those shouldn’t cause your quota to run out too quickly. What you can try is using some sort of YAGNI enforcement like the Ponytail plugin. Also giving some instructions in your personal AGENTS.md for the model to give more efficient answers can help.

What plan are you using? Currently I think that ChatGPT plus can be a bit tight if you’re not careful. On my Claude plan for work I can use Opus all day and it barely scratches the quota. I’m not sure which Team seat I have though, maybe it’s the premium one.

I answered the cost point

So you’re using a really crappy model for agent work and extrapolate all the problems you encounter to actually capable models? That’s not really how anything works.

If Cursor is this bad with quotas, get a ChatGPT or Claude subscription. The $20 tiers are fine even for large codebases. For extended autonomous work (goal or loop mode) you would want the higher tiers. Use at least Terra 6.1 or Sonnet 5.5 for your regular conversation and if needed, let them create cheaper subagents for large, repetitive tasks.

It’s terrible to have everybody have a bunch of the world’s limited supply of money instead of shoving it all into one guy’s pocket

It works and I’ve been playing around with it for the past week. Not really knowing what I’m doing, because my background is in software development, not reverse engineering, I’ve been running into the usual problems with badly guided agents. My project is cluttered, I don’t really know what’s important, progress is rather slow. But there is progress and I’m sure someone with more RE knowledge can make the process more efficient.

I’m looking forward to getting some of my favourite old games running on modern systems using this.

Well you see, it’s called the autonomous nervous system for a reason. It just does its thing and you don’t have direct control over it.

Well you could say his mental illness forces him

I prefer a GUI for most stuff. They’re way more discoverable, you don’t have to memorize cryptic flags, and the mouse is just the more efficient input device to me.

Still I can use a terminal if I have to, that’s just part of the job to me.

Hasn’t this been closed for a long time now? Just create your install drive with Rufus, it patches the bypass back in.

This is not a debate. What is going on in the comments of this post, can you not spot a joke?

That’s part of the joke, it sets you up with the wrong expectations

Letting someone touch your phone is already the rookie mistake

20 years ago when I started getting into this stuff, there was no AI, so I guess that helped. Other than that I like to understand how things work, and that curiosity has got me pretty far.

You’re committing the blunder of alienating your allies. Complaining, that “the STEM bros” didn’t push back against AI earlier, is just gatekeeping.

And mounting the only copy of the data as read/write

Love the sprinkle of flour as the finishing touch

Kinda defeats the purpose of a media server built to be used by multiple people
