What
When you hit a usage limit, Claude Code shows a rate-limit message. This release reworks those messages for the seven_day_overage_included limit, a weekly limit:
In the terminal: the message can now end with "Run /usage-credits to continue or switch models with /model." or with "/model to switch models." The longer text appears only when other conditions hold. /usage-credits is new text in this build.
In remote sessions: the message tells you to switch to another model to continue.
Removed wording: the "You've reached your Fable limit." variant is gone, and the usage-credits text in the spend-limit message is simpler.
Gate: a new check combines the gate tengu_sunny_mountain with another condition and falls back to off. A gate is a switch Anthropic can flip from its servers. Nearby are new helpers for the credit balance, the overage state and a blocked state. What this check opens has not been traced, and nothing has been read about the gate yet.
Test warnings: the old approaching-weekly, Opus and Sonnet warning cases were removed from the mock rate-limit messages.
Why
If you reach the weekly limit, the message now names the commands that let you keep going: /usage-credits to configure or request usage credits, or /model to switch models.
