What
When the session is not interactive, hitting the credit or monthly spend cap now produces a message telling you to switch to another model, with a link to claude.ai/admin-settings/usage on team and enterprise accounts and a generic credits link otherwise. Interactive sessions keep the existing wording pointing at /usage-credits and /model, which are not typeable in a non-interactive run.
Evidence
You've hit your monthly spend limit. Switch to another model${s} to continue.
