🚨 CLAUDE USERS 🚨 I DID IT AGAIN 😭 NO AI API. NO SUNO. OPUS 5.5 ON MEDIUM. But this time I started in a FRESH CONTEXT. Remember the music video that Claude estimated at ~$20 in API usage? This one? ~$3–$6 estimated API cost. 💀 And because I’m running it through my Max plan: $0 EXTRA PAID. Context management matters WAY more than I thought 😂 OPUS 5.5 IS ABSOLUTELY COOKING
