It is the difference between giving an LLM an epic and say "You figure it out" and giving the single tasks' breakdown you envisioned and build incrementally on top of it. With the latter you can, for example, say "Wait, this should be an interface because later on we need different concrete implementations". With the former, the agent doesn't do that, gets to the point where you actually need the flexibility interfaces give you and refactors everything to handle that. That is at least 2x the work/tokens. Multiply this for all the decision points you have to do to deliver a big piece of work and you have your bagillion tokens consumed. |
