Max plan burned in ~3 heavy days — agents and plugins ate the window
- Tried
- Run serious Claude Code work on Max 20x and measure what actually consumes the 5h/7d windows
- Broke
- Spawning agent teams, Playwright screenshots, and unused MCP schemas inflated every turn; ~3 active days emptied the 7d window
- Fix
- One agent when one is enough; trim unused plugins; /compact on long resumes; treat screenshots as expensive
