Managing Credit Usage: Issues with Long Email Chains in Lindy

Hi Team! My Lindy is draining my credits on long email chains. One chain here has drained 3k+ credits, but I have “Create a new task” checked on. I have simple conditions (on 3.5 sonnet) using 70 credits. Link. Please advise!

If you see in the first screenshot, I do have “Create new task” as on. Is this the right one?

Are you sure this was set to create a new task with the task you shared? 👀

I just tested the functionality on my end and it works as expected for me

hey Brandon. The agent was set to handle it in the same task at task run time. no bug here..

unless is it based on when the first email triggered it?

it could have been handle in same task the first time it triggered, but not since then with all the follow ups. is that why?

Heres another example where this one email chain has burned 1500 credits

Yeah since the task was already triggered it will use the same settings for that thread
