How to never hit your Claude usage limits ever again. I use Claude for 4+ hours every single day, and I never hit my rate limits. These are the tips that nobody is talking about, and I wish I had known them a few months ago: (works especially well with the new Opus 4.8 model) • Spend more time planning - use Plan Mode in Claude Code (Shift + Tab twice or /plan) • Start new chats instead of continuing long ones. Long chats BURN tokens due to context bloat. • Add this to your project instructions: "Be cognisant of token usage. Be concise and advise me when to start a new chat." • When switching chats, prompt: "Give me a prompt to restart this session without losing context." • Build an Instructions.MD + Memory.MD folder so Claude never forgets your preferences • Escalate models: Haiku → Sonnet → Opus. Don't start at the top of the funnel (aka Opus) • Turn off Extended/Adaptive Thinking unless you specifically need it • Switch your Style to "Concise" (click "+" on Homepage) • Take advantage of "Low" effort in Claude Code for most tasks • Use Claude Design tokens for visuals. Don't waste Claude Code tokens on anything visual These tips have genuinely changed the game for me.
