Brandon Galang highlights that GPT-6 Sol and Luna share Astra's cache mechanics: you can adjust reasoning effort without invalidating your cache.
- Huge efficiency and cost gains on top of GPT-6's lower prices — effort switching stays cache-friendly.
- Particularly valuable for production agent workloads with dynamic reasoning budgets.
- Author plans to "tokenmaxx" with GPT-6 for production agent use cases even as Opus 5.5 stole the show.
