What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
The hint asking Claude to wrap up the current step as you approach the limit now uses a threshold that depends on your plan: 0.99 on Max 5x, 0.9975 on Max 20x, and a default otherwise. It fires at most once per five-hour window instead of every time you cross into the near-limit zone.
Details
The hint is keyed to the window's reset time, so re-entering the zone in the same window does not re-trigger it.
A usage reading is ignored unless both the reset time and the utilisation figure are finite numbers and the window has not already reset.
Reachable on this build with no flag.
