Grok users hit weekly limits early as OpenAI doubles Pro caps — how do teams plan?

A Reddit discussion highlights how volatile AI coding-tool usage policies have become: Grok Bot users hit 100% of their weekly limits days before reset, with Musk saying serving it cost too much, while days earlier OpenAI walked back a planned cut and doubled Pro limits instead.
Key points:
- Neither vendor publishes exact numbers, so teams running coding agents on these services have capacity determined by whatever the vendor decides each week.
- The author, who talks to many engineering leads, says nobody has a plan yet: lock into one vendor for a better deal, or route across several so one change doesn't kill a sprint?
