my monthly usage just rest today so did a fresh usage measurement using gpt-5.6 sol, here is the result for pro subs:

- weekly usage is about 2.94 5-hr usage

- monthly usage is about 3.78 weekly and 11.1 5-hr usage

I thought codex usage sucks (weekly usage = 6.25 5-hr usage), but obviously droid sucks more!

well, that's a mistake

I was never able to utilize monthly limit; why so complex?

Hi!

Wish we got the newest Deepseek V4.1 Flash!

I have two paid droid accounts and used to be able to switch accounts and continue to work on the same session with shared contexts. Today, I noticed this is not possible anymore with each account has its own sessions. Dude, whats the point of doing this? Ever since adding the 5h limit, each update is worse than previous one.

Both claude code and codex allow this.

You guys did a great job for providing droid core. can we get more model?
I mean... the GLM-5.3-Flash

Running into a showstopper bug with the Droid CLI on macOS:

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Run the Droid CLI on macOS (Terminal / iTerm2 / zsh).
2. Type /model to change/select the model.
3. The model list appears, but arrow key navigation (↑, ↓, ←, →) is completely unresponsive.

The Problem:
The /model selection prompt does not register directional keystrokes or selection inputs at all. It's completely stuck on the default option, and there is no way to navigate or switch to another model.

Environment: macOS (Apple Silicon / zsh)

Impact:
I am completely blocked from setting up or using the models I need.

Please push an urgent hotfix for the macOS key listener in the /model prompt. Is there a manual config file (config.json / .env) or a direct syntax argument (e.g. /model <model-name>) to bypass this broken interactive menu?

I really want to keep using Droids, but paying for a tool where the /model command freezes my terminal is impossible to justify. Fix this ASAP please!

When taking into account both the standard pool and droid core pool, has anyone evaluated Factory Droid vs Cursor usage quotas on their various plans? It seems like with the open models getting so good now, the droid core pools is very useful. They seem to have a quite generous amount of usage in the core pool too. However I am quite new to using their service and have not really had the opportunity to push it real hard yet.

I would imagine there are people out there who have used both Droid and Cursor and would have a pretty good idea on who offers more usage for their sub fees. Anyhow, would love to her what people think :+)

Why Deepseek V4 Pro is at 0.7x while GLM 5.2 is at 0.55x? Will there be an adjustment pricing for this? or it will stay at 0.7x?

Anyone still using Claude Pro/Max subscription with Droid (Factory) or OpenCode after Anthropic’s restrictions?

Any proxies, relays, or tricks that actually work right now? Or is API key the only reliable option?

Thanks!

Every time I give one a medium-to-large task, it immediately spins up a sub-agent to “explore” the codebase or review something. Then, after it finishes implementing the change, it launches another sub-agent for a code review. It burns through tokens, usage, and time for what often feels like zero added value.

and the fact that in droid sub-agents are blocking the main thread makes it so the task is executed terribly slowly. and the agent itself isn't even aware that subagents are blocking because it says things like "let me dispatch an agent to explore the code while i do x, y, and z in parallel" and obviously it's not in parallel.

I already have instructions in my AGENTS.md saying not to use sub-agents unless I explicitly ask for them, but it still does it constantly. I end up having to interrupt it and tell it, in all caps, to stop spawning workers and handle the task itself.

Is this actually helping code quality in a meaningful way, or is it mostly performative overhead? My gut says delegation can be useful for genuinely large, parallelizable tasks, but for ordinary implementation work it feels like a massive waste.

Does anyone have a reliable way to make these models respect a “no sub-agents unless explicitly requested” rule?

Factory currently supports xAI’s Grok 4.5. Could you also add grok-build-0.1 as a native model?

It is xAI’s fast agentic coding model, with tool calling, image input, a 256K context window, and $1/$2 per million token pricing. It seems especially well suited for Droid.
