The biggest mistake I made when I first set up my OpenClaw back in February was trying to set up cron jobs to have the agent do a bunch of stuff through LLM.
That is a horrible way to go about cron jobs.
You want the agent to create scripts and only inject the LLM when needed.
Saves you a bunch of usage and everything executes way faster.
If I had to put it in words, the Codex weekly limit feels like the Anthropic 5-hour limit. Using Astra
Except there is no waiting till later for it to refresh. You now are forced to run to X and harass Tibo
Annihilated my 5-hour limit on Opus doing a bunch of work.
Switched to Astra.
2 hours later I'm down 50% of my weekly usage and the task isn't done.
If Dev day isn't amazing, my Codex sub is getting demoted
Funny thing is, in my head I'm like, "Let me just switch to Astra so I can get the task done then," because my Opus Usage doesn't come back till 6:30. This thing is taking so long. My Opus Usage will be reset before this thing finishes. Jesus Christ
OpenClaw has gotten so much better at running multiple subagents at once. I've got about seven subagents across Astra and Opus all working together, being orchestrated by my main agent, and none of them are failing
