That's the fucking thing, these assholes are now monitoring your usage. Wasteful behavior will be punished (using most expensive models for trivial tasks) as much as not using the fucking thing. I think bad prompting the cheap shit often will be most wasteful.
Instead of doing nonsense to waste tokens yourself you can put nonsense in the
AGENTS.mdand have the whole team waste tokens.@a bunch of files to add them to the context when they don't need to be. Add instructions to have the LLM do more tool calls, maybe add some verbose flags.
