Claude Code v2.1.229 12 Aug 2026

GitHub rate-limit reminder backoff is now per session

You'll notice

Useful2 Signal2

Elsewhere

One session hitting the GitHub rate limit no longer silences the warning in your other sessions.

What

The reminder telling Claude it has hit the shared GitHub API limit keeps its backoff timestamp in per-session tool state instead of a single process-wide variable, so one session's reminder no longer suppresses another's.

Details

The reminder text still cites the 5,000 requests per hour limit shared across all tools and agents.

Evidence

GitHub API rate limit exceeded (5,000/hr shared across all tools and agents)

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