This is just a github issue with a vague complaint.

A lot of comments and evidence - where there’s smoke…

...there's...evidence of excessive token usage by Claude Code.

Yeah.

What's the 'news'?

It’s silly, it’s a 6 weeks old issue, and there aren’t even any actual facts in there, just screenshots.

I’ll believe it when I see actual facts, e.g. actual token counts (which is relatively easy to capture if you use mitmproxy or something like that).

For all I know this guy has a 5000 line CLAUDE.md

I would have submitted a better report but I ran out of tokens.

The recent VS Code extension update has noticeably degraded the experience.

The agent now becomes unresponsive at times and needs a reload, which really breaks flow. More frustratingly, the context limit seems to fill up much faster on the same project that was working fine just days ago. Nothing major changed on my side, so this feels like a backend or token allocation shift.
