- 4Hacker News·7/19/2026researchHow one researcher cut AI agent token costs with shared subscriptions
A Quesma researcher describes building a deep-research pipeline for studying AI agent economics after an initial run exhausted a Claude Max plan in 30 minutes. The revised setup uses Claude Code as the main harness, with Codex and Antigravity added as headless subagents sharing memory through claude-mem, and cheaper models assigned to specific roles to reduce cost and improve verification.
- 7The New Stack·7/7/2026product_launchCoinbase cuts AI costs by routing work across multiple models
Coinbase says it has reduced internal AI spending by nearly half while usage kept growing, by defaulting engineers to cheaper open-weight models, routing tasks to different models, and increasing cache reuse. The company also says it now operates about 1,200 AI agents, reinforcing its push to automate model selection through an internal gateway rather than rely on a single provider.
