In Max Mode, we enable models to use [large context windows](#context-windows), unlimited tool calls, and other capabilities for expanded reasoning, to allow an unfettered agentic experience.
Because of the increased cost to Zed, each subsequent request beyond the initial user prompt in Max Mode models is counted as a prompt for metering.
In addition, usage-based pricing per request is slightly more expensive for Max Mode models than usage-based pricing per prompt for regular models.

For best results, it’s recommended you take a purpose-based approach to Agent thread management, starting a new thread for each unique task.
