What sort of subscription plan is that?

Claude Code's $200 Max subscription can take a lot of usage. I haven't done a dozen things at once, but I have worked on two side projects simultaneously with it before.

ccusage shows me getting over 10x the value of paying via API tokens this month so far...

I had to look that up: https://github.com/ryoppippi/ccusage

  npx ccusage@latest
Outputs a table of your token usage over the last few days, which it reads from the jsonl files that Claude Code leaves tucked away in the ~/.claude/ directory.

Don’t sleep on the other options either, the live updates are cool, see where you’re at in the five hour session.

Given you can nearly run two full code instances with Opus, and Opus is claimed to be 5x more expensive than Sonnet, you can maybe do 10 sonnet instances at the same time?
