| Running AI agents costs real money. Here's how to stay in control: | ||

| **Model costs vary significantly.** Opus is the most capable but most expensive model. Use `spec.model` (or `model` in config) to choose cheaper models like Sonnet for routine tasks and reserve Opus for complex work. As a rough guide, a typical 15-minute Sonnet task costs ~$1-3, while an Opus task of the same length can cost ~$5-15 depending on context size. | ||

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I am not sure about the cost. Be conservative about wrong information. Why don't we just remove the numbers?
