Source Intelligence

DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. 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.

Rate-limit status re-emits on any window change

Under the hood
Useful2 Signal2
Rate Limits

Rate-limit status updates now fire whenever any usage window changes, not just the coarsest one.

What

The utilization tracker now remembers what it last emitted for each of the three windows and emits a status change whenever any one of them differs, rather than on the coarser previous condition. The overage header name became a shared constant used in both places it is compared.

Evidence

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

Related

Other releases about the same thing. Found by shared names or similar wording; neither means one caused the other.
