Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Fable 5 Included-Usage Limit — New Rate Limit Category

A new rate limit type, seven_day_overage_included, tracks weekly Fable 5 usage for accounts where a defined amount is bundled into the plan. When this limit is exhausted, Claude Code now displays a specific message instead of the generic overage prompt:

  • "You've reached your Fable 5 limit" — shown in the model picker and notifications
  • "You've used your included Fable 5 usage for this week. Continuing on Fable 5 uses usage credits" — explains exactly what happens next

Previously, hitting any Fable 5 limit while on an account with usage credits would show the generic model-switch / credits dialog. Users on the new included-usage tier now see a distinct, accurate message. The model-switch prompt is suppressed when this limit type is active, since the appropriate next step is purchasing credits rather than switching models.

Evidence

new rate limit type and display label (search for "seven_day_overage_included" and "Fable 5 limit")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
