Absolutely. I installed clawdbot for just long enough to send a single message, and it burned through almost a quarter of my session allowance. That was enough for me. Meanwhile I can use CC comfortably for a few hours and I've only hit my token limit a few times.

I've had a similar experience with opencode, but I find that works better with my local models anyway.

I used it for a few mins and it burned 7M tokens. Wish there was a way to see where it's going!

(There probably is, but I found it very hard to make sense of the UI and how everything works. Hard to change models, no chat history etc.?)

I have a feeling the different harnesses create new context windows instead of using one. The more context windows you open up with Claude the quicker your usage goes poof.

Wow, that is very surprising and alarming. I wish Anthropic would have made a more public statement as to why they blocked other harnesses.
