What Claude Code shows
First a warning, “Approaching session limit”. Then, halfway through a change, “5-hour limit reached - resets 2pm”. Every message after that gets the same answer until 2:00 pm.

1
Check your usage before you start
What happens Nothing warns you. Claude just stops at 11:40 am, with the reset 2 h 20 min away.
Do this Type
/usagewhen you start and again mid-morning. The session bar shows how fast this morning is going, and the week bar whether to ease off.In the kit Chapter 4: watch your usage
-
2
Start a fresh chat every 10 messages
What happens In one long chat, message 40 re-sends the 39 before it: 80,000 tokens for one question.
Do this Ask Claude for a handoff note, type
/clearand paste the note into the new chat. The work carries on, and the old messages stop being re-sent.In the kit Chapter 2 and the handoff template
-
3
Cut CLAUDE.md to 40 lines
What happens Claude Code reads CLAUDE.md with every message. At 5,000 tokens, a morning of 75 messages reads it 75 times.
Do this Keep only the rules Claude needs every time: under 40 lines, about 1,000 tokens.

Point Claude at the log, don’t paste it
What happens A failing test’s log pasted into the chat, 15,000 tokens, rides along with every message after it.
Do this Type
@logs/test.logso Claude reads the file, or paste only the 20 lines around the error. Hand a long bug hunt to a subagent.In the kit Chapters 1 and 3

Save Opus for the hard problems
What happens Opus on a rename spends your limit fastest, for an answer a smaller model gets right.
Do this Type
/modeland pick Haiku for small jobs, Sonnet for everyday work and Opus for the hard ones. Switch right after a/clear.In the kit Chapters 3 and 5
The same morning, no wait
Done this way, you send 75 messages by 2:00 pm instead of 40, and the window resets with 58% of the limit used. You work straight through to the reset.
Your times depend on how you work, and a smaller model for small jobs stretches them further.

Work out your own day: one long chat or short ones
Every turn re-sends the whole chat so far, so turn 80 of one chat costs 80 times turn 1. Type in your own day and watch what short chats save.
Fewer tokens with short chats
One long chat
Short chats with a handoff note
This is a model of how a chat’s cost grows, not Anthropic’s meter. Each turn adds about 2,000 tokens and re-sends everything before it, and each new chat opens on a handoff note about one turn long. Anthropic measures your limit its own way, so your figure will differ. Nothing you type leaves this page.

You sign in to Claude Code with it once, in the morning. Everything Claude Code does then draws on your plan, the same allowance as your chats.
A handoff note
Before each /clear, Claude writes down what is done and what comes next, from the kit’s template. You paste it into the new chat, and the work goes on without the old turns.
Claude Token Freedom Handbook: the token freedom way to fix all of it.
Ultra costs ten times Pro for ten times the usage. The handbook closes that gap on your own Pro: the same long day reads about a tenth of the tokens.

- Answers as long as Claude makes them

- Short answers, asked for once
697,750 tokens read
10.1×as many tokens read the usual way, for the same day’s work. On days like it, Pro used the token freedom way carries what Ultra carried the usual way.
An example worked out, not measured: each turn adds about 1,000 tokens (750 with short answers) and reads everything before it. The handoff note is about 1,000 tokens, and asking for it is one more turn. It is a heavy day on purpose, and Claude Code’s own instructions and tools, read on every turn either way, are left out of both: counted in, the gap is smaller. Your limit is Anthropic’s own measure of usage, so your figure depends on how you work. Smaller models for small jobs stretch it further and are not counted here. Ultra’s ten times is from Claude’s pricing page, read 9 November 2026.
Stay on Pro, not Ultra: what you keep in a month, then a year.
When Pro covers the work you were about to buy a bigger plan for, that plan’s price stays yours: one step, Pro instead of Max, keeps US$80 a month, beside US$199 once for the handbook. Whether your work fits on Pro depends on your work. Claude’s own prices, added up month by month.

The same steps stretch Ultra: on the long day above it does about ten times the work it does the usual way, past where its quota used to stop you. Or stay on Max instead of Ultra and keep US$1,200 a year, six months of Ultra for the months your work needs it.
Claude’s list prices in US dollars, read on 9 November 2026: Pro US$20, Max US$100 and Ultra US$200 a month (Max was Max 5x and Ultra was Max 20x until 30 October). Prices change, so check Claude’s pricing page before you switch. What you keep depends on your work: each line is what one plan step is worth, not a promise.

The handoff prompt, word for word
The template behind step 2, exactly as the zip has it. Send it as the last message of a long chat, then start the new chat with Claude’s reply.
templates/handoff.mdI am going to start a fresh chat and need to carry this one over. Write a handoff note I can paste as my first message. Keep it under 300 words and use these headings: Goal: what I am trying to get done, in one or two sentences. Decisions made: each decision and the reason, one line each. Facts to keep: names, numbers, file paths, versions, constraints and anything I told you that must not be forgotten. Done so far: what is finished. Open questions: what is still undecided or unknown. Next step: the single next thing to do. My preferences: tone, format and length rules I asked for. Leave out the back-and-forth, the dead ends and anything I rejected. If something in the note is your guess and not something I said, mark it (guess).

# Where your tokens go A token is a small piece of text, about a short word or part of a longer one. Claude reads and writes in tokens. Your plan's allowance counts them, in chat and in Claude Code alike. To spend fewer, you need to know what puts tokens into a turn. ## 1. Every turn re-reads the whole chat Claude does not remember a chat between messages. Each time you send one, the whole conversation so far goes in again, with your new message at the end. So a chat of 20 messages is not 20 small messages. Message 20 carries messages 1 to 19 with it. A short "thanks, one more thing" sent at message 40 makes Claude read all 40. Anthropic says the same about its apps: long conversations use up your limit faster than short ones. The cost of one more message grows with the length of the chat. What to do: keep one topic to one chat, and start a new chat when the topic changes. Chapter 2 shows how to carry over what matters. …

Questions
Does this make Claude unlimited?
No plan or trick does: Anthropic sets the limits. The handbook cuts the tokens each task spends, so the same allowance covers much more work before you reach it.
Can Pro work like Ultra?
Not by changing your limit: Pro keeps its own, and Ultra still allows ten times as much a week. What changes is how much each task reads. On the heavy day worked out on this page, Pro carries the load Ultra carried the usual way. How close you get depends on how you work.
I’m on Ultra. Can I go past its quota?
Past what it covered, yes. Past the limit itself, no one can. Used the handbook way, the same quota fits far more work: on the long day worked out on this page, about ten times as much.
When does the five-hour limit reset?
In full, five hours after the first message of a session: start at 9:00 am and it resets at 2:00 pm, however early you reach it. Settings > Usage shows the time left. The handbook fits more work into each window, so you reach it later. Only Ultra drops the five-hour limit, and only for verified accounts.
Is any of it against Anthropic’s terms?
No. There are no shared accounts and no ways around the limits. Every tip uses Claude Code’s and Claude’s own settings and commands, on your own account.
Is this made by Anthropic?
No. Mindket made it. Claude and its logo belong to Anthropic. The handbook shows you how to use your own Claude plan well.
What do I need?
VS Code with Anthropic’s Claude Code extension, and a paid Claude plan to sign in with: Pro, Max or Ultra. That is all the method needs.
Does it work with Fable 5.2?
Yes. Anthropic released Claude Fable 5.2 on 9 November 2026 for its Pro, Max, Ultra, Team and Enterprise plans (read on 10 November 2026). Every message you send it still counts against your plan’s limits. The handbook cuts how much each chat re-reads, so it works the same with Fable 5.2 as with any model you pick in Claude Code.
What does the setup skill do, and what is left to me?
It makes the handbook’s changes in one project. Choose the project’s folder in Claude Cowork and run it there. Claude writes a lean CLAUDE.md with the short-answer rules and puts the handoff prompt and /compact lines on a cheat sheet. It switches off MCP servers the project never calls and keeps Opus for planning only. Its notes let a later run pick up where it stopped, and it reruns a weekly usage check. Your part is installing VS Code and Claude Code, signing in and choosing a plan. Claude never types a password or a card number. No Claude Cowork? Claude Code runs the skill too.
What is in the member area?
The method as steps, one at a time: what to do, with the videos, PDFs and files for each, and the handbook’s zip to download. Steps added later are yours too.
How do I pay?
Once, by card through Stripe. It is not a subscription. Right after paying you land in the member area of your Mindket account, and Get it on this page opens it any time.
Can I cancel or get a refund?
Access starts when you pay. Once you open the handbook, it is yours and the sale is final, so read this page and try the token calculator above first.
How long does the 50% off last?
For the launch. This page always shows today’s price, so what you see is what you pay.
