We build client apps through MCP all day, which means we hit Claude's usage limits all day. Session caps, a weekly cap that a heavy build can burn through in twenty minutes, and a model that kept testing after being told to stop.
New on the blog: what a Friday actually looks like for a four-person team working this way, and the eight habits that keep it shipping — when to hand over (75%, not 98), why "stop" does not mean stop, when to switch models versus wait it out, and why your chat history is not a library.

The Limits Are Part of the Workflow Now: A Friday Inside Our MCP Build Team
Session caps, a weekly Fable cap that burns in twenty minutes, and a model that would not stop when asked. What a Friday looks like on a team that builds apps through MCP.

Meet DailySaga: A gamified Life OS built entirely in Notion. 🎮
Most productivity systems feel like chores, so I built DailySaga—a comprehensive Life OS designed to make daily execution feel like leveling up a character.
From complex task databases to habit-driven character sheets, it packs deep sub-page architecture into a clean, unified dashboard that doesn't compromise on functionality.
Title: Why 80% of your new email subscribers never buy or donate
Most brands work so hard on top of funnel traffic. You run ads, post on social media, and get people to sign up for your newsletter.
Then you send them a generic welcome email with a discount code and complete silence for two weeks.
Here is what happens when you do that:
Your subscribers forget who you are within 48 hours
Your open rates drop on every future broadcast
Readers feel like just another metric on your list instead of an insider
A generic confirmation email does not build trust. A strategic 3-part sequence tells your core origin story, sets clear expectations, and guides new subscribers toward their first purchase or donation while their interest is at its peak.
If your welcome flow feels dry or non-existent, I write 3-part custom on boarding sequences that turn cold signups into warm, loyal community members.
Drop a comment or check out my fixed-scope service link on my profile to get your welcome sequence updated this week.
I used an AI prompt on the 'base44' platform to develop an application for automating restaurant kitchen staff scheduling and the procurement of provisions. However, base44 has a limited number of AI credits; the 100 free credits provided cannot all be used for a single project, as there is a daily cap of only 6 credits. To access more, one must either upgrade to a 'Pro' tier or wait for 8 days. Providing unlimited credits to challenge participants would allow them to better demonstrate their professional capabilities by producing higher-quality project outcomes.
When I used the daily free credits on base44 for this project, the AI failed to deliver the expected results; it struggled to grasp the requirements accurately.
In contrast, when I used the same AI prompt with Claude, it developed a full-scale application complete with deployment-ready output in just three prompts. The user interface and backend functionality are highly accurate. I have attached the relevant screenshots here, along with the link to the project generated via base44. Could you tell me which LLM would be the best fit for our needs?
I took a look at the 'disc golf' project created by an AI prompt engineer, the winner of a previous base44 challenge, but I’m struggling to understand how they managed to build it.
Here is the link to the project, which was developed using free AI credits via the base44 LLM: https://magic-resto-flow-hub.base44.app
I have also attached screenshots of a project created using free AI credits via the Claude LLM.
Please share your thoughts on this.
