I've spent $260 worth of API credits on my $20 Claude Code Pro subscription so far.

Agentic stuff is probably the exemption to this because it chews tokens like nobody's business. For average prompting, API is the way to go. I've spent an average of around $7.50/mo between OAI and Claude, and that's using o3 and Opus for most queries.
