Any time, I hope they're helpful! (☞゚ヮ゚)☞
I did say it was surprising! 😂 To give you an idea what I mean by "economical", it's never more than a few bucks a day, even on days of heavy use and development with "loop until clean" instructions on QA (for which I use Opus). I accidentally blew through my opencode go quota really early in the first month, so I ended up on PAYG; here's the usage graph:
And here's the numbers breakdown for the highest day (I was evaluating GLM5.1 for general tasks - don't use it for that, it's really token hungry)

That includes a lot of experimentation too while I figured out which models were best for what. I hid Fable because it crushed the rest of the table - really expensive, but worth it for one-shotting very long tasks on the Anthropic subscription is what I found.
Damn those are good numbers!
