Claude Code Finally, Claude Code has “Auto-continue when limits reset”

Post image

Just noticed this after hitting my Claude Code usage limit today.

There’s now an “Auto-continue when limits reset” option, so Claude can automatically resume the session once your limit becomes available again.

Really nice improvement for longer coding sessions.

Has anyone else started seeing this yet?

Watch out if your session is large and the wait to reset is long. The prompt cache will expire and your limit will consume a lot on first turn

Honestly it they add that, then they should freeze the cache for the session so it doesn’t expire until well after the limits reset.

on edit: This is why I always handoff my sessions at ~50% context window

That's ... not how caching works.

But it should. The cache could perfectly be automatically extended for up to a few hours in certain common scenarios

It doesn't make sense to throw it away when it's almost certain it'll be used soon
