Ask HN: Claude Code randomly burning through 10% of the weekly limit?

I'm using the biggest plan, yet sometimes Claude randomly burns through a huge portion of the weekly limit. The limit had just reset, and I found myself with 9% usage within 10 minutes. During the previous week, I had used Ultracode and agent swarms with no such jumps in usage. Does enabling Fable 5 use such a noticeably larger amount of tokens? Has anyone else noticed this on their end?

    Yeah I've seen like 30 percent of the session window is used up in an instant turning on fable. Fable itself is also like 2x the tokens. So yes, I turned it off.
