Can someone comment on the cost of running agentic models? Not for a company but for an individual. I tried "vibe coding" a personal project I was struggling with and left even more frustrated because I kept running into token rate limits with Claude (used inside of Zed if it matters). Did I pick the wrong model, the wrong editor, or do I just need to not be so tight with my money?

- threePointFive 1y agoWhile i think i know what you're getting at, for the sake of discussion, could you elaborate?
- Dylan16807 1y agoSomeone running out of tokens is not relevant to the article or its argument.
- haiku2077 1y agoI tried Zed's agent support with Copilot. I was able to get it to implement a working feature with tests, but the code quality was poor and it took longer to do it than if I had written it myself. I am wondering if maybe the average programmer is way slower and worse than I thought.
- mholm 1y agoTry Cursor.ai or Windsail. They have free trials for the good models, and are pretty cheap to use if you decide you like them.
- gr2020 1y agoI haven't used zed specifically, but were you using your own API key for Claude? If so, you were probably running into the Anthropic API rate limits [1]. You can either a) deposit more funds to move your way up the tier list, or instead access Claude via something like OpenRouter, which will give you much higher limits.
