alt Hacker NewsI'm already burning through enough tokens and producing more code than can be maintained - with just one claude worker. Feel like I need to move into the other direction, more personal hands-on "management".

If there's any kind of management some of it could use small local models - e.g. to see when it looks like its stuck.
I've seen more efficient use of tokens by using delegation. Unless you continually compact or summarise and clear a single main agent - you end up doing work on top of a large context; burning tokens. If the work is delegated to subagents they have a fresh context which avoids this whilst improving their reasoning, which both improve token efficiency.
