Regarding the metrics:
- Claude (via Hubspot MCP) was paginating over contacts, at 40s per 800 contacts and ~150k tokens (triggering compaction)
- full run was 120 of these loops @ 80 minutes and 18M tokens
- Claude + Max was 1 `max search hubspot --filter` command piped to sort | uniq -c
- plus 1 `max search gdrive` query matching each of the results of the previous query, piped to sort | uniq -c
- The rest of the tokens were spent producing an output from 20 words + 20 numbers

(Both of these calculations ignore cached tokens)
