How does that work out in terms of usage? I imagine that, unless you're on the highest tier subscription or have a no expense spared approach to agentic coding, then you're going to hit a wall pretty fast.

It's actually less token usage overall, since the gigantic context that builds up in the main agent is a huge driver of costs.
