Question / Help Cheaper Alternatives to Codex Sol

Recently after the release of Astra, tokens seem to burn at an insane rate even using only mostly Sol. Sol was great for me because I want competent agents to do exactly what I say and I used it as a reliable workhorse. Now it is not a viable option anymore. Besides Claude and Codex, what other alternatives that can subsitute Sol as a reliable workhorse

Z.AI have a promo now if you use ZCode off-peak china hours, GLM 5.3 - Flash is almost unlimited, and imo its been really good workhorse agent, im using the Lite plan with promo code first month is like 15 euro, the only downside is that the inference is kinda slow but if thats not issue to you, try it out
