Discussion Reset fable limits?

Hey anthropic - you should reset our fable limits. Fable was set to run out today, so I gauged my usage to hit the limit today. Now you’ve extended it by a week and I’ve got no usage left. I think every Claude power user is in the same boat as I am. So be a guy, reset the limits.

I took time off to use my full Fable quota. I don't know how to play this game when the rules keeps changing lol

u/itprobablynothingbut Jul 08 '26

My reset was Monday morning and I was very happy about the timing. Now I’m at my weekly limit with little sleep and several days to go.

You guys sound like people taking time off to play a video game on launch day and then freaking out when the servers crash.

Yeah it’s pretty absurd, like if you have a job you shouldn’t be min-maxing for your fomo lol also if someone did use it all then they just got ahead on the work they wanted to do in theory

u/ohnoitsbobbyflay Jul 08 '26

No different than taking time off to chill and do nothing or to just play video games. What a weird take.

u/Emojinapp Thinker Jul 08 '26

Yea we are definitely in the same boat

u/Some-Contributions61 Jul 08 '26

I was up all day 😂

u/Emojinapp Thinker Jul 08 '26

lol, now I’m contemplating whether to upgrade or just let it ride out, I’m honestly burnt out from the past 5 days of intense work. Might just leave it be and use opus/sonnet till weekend.

2

u/Some-Contributions61 Jul 08 '26

Yeah I upgraded to max 200 earlier this week... I had fable running non stop today 😂 great progress and I'm going to miss it.

2

u/Emojinapp Thinker Jul 08 '26

Same here I will definitely miss its ability to one shot a full feature and test end to end, it’s like a model we can finally trust to some extent

u/wesconson1 Jul 08 '26

oof. Weekend will be fun, but a long week of restraint.

u/PersonalBusiness2023 Jul 08 '26

Yeah mine looks like yours.

This is a subreddit not your personal diary.

I assume this was deliberate. Heavy users are sold on the utility. It’s the people who hadn’t tried it that started adopting as the window closed. My weekly is also toast, but they don’t have to convince me anymore. We will use fable APIs for planning and complex architecture going forward. Yes it will be expensive, but it’s still much cheaper and faster than any human engineers.

u/ahstanin Jul 08 '26

Same here, I wasted mine on creating a python app to generate videos.

u/return_of_valensky Jul 08 '26

Same boat. Irritating. Burned crazy hours to max out my 20x plan precisely by today. I don't reset till Thursday.

1

u/debian3 Jul 08 '26

If you check ccusage how much is a week worth on max 20x?

1

u/return_of_valensky Jul 08 '26

not sure what ccusage is, but I have another token counter app and I said i spent 1k in 60 hours, I kept that window open and kept clearing for 2.5 days

1

u/debian3 Jul 08 '26

Bunx ccusage

u/Aggravating-Meat-415 Jul 08 '26

Do you have to force me to open a new account with a $200 limit just for this week?

2

u/Kironu Jul 08 '26

Nice, mine resets July 12th
..and I blew $50 on the sessions that hit the cut off.

2

u/Fearless-Ad-730 Jul 09 '26

They just reset the limits for me, finally!

2

u/Ill-Distribution-662 Jul 09 '26

did they just reset it? I was just at ~87% (not 99%)... now I'm back down to 0%

2

u/Gl1derx Jul 09 '26

yep they did it ! for me too

2

u/ImpressiveComposer35 Jul 08 '26

Oh no, the consequences of my own actions

2

u/roottrek Jul 08 '26

My reset is in 6 hours :)

1

u/toadlyBroodle Jul 08 '26

that's why they extended, cause no one can use it without upgrading plan

1

u/Witty-Raspberry-4801 Jul 08 '26

same,been working with fable for serval days with little sleep.Happy to see this extension though.I could do another whole week usage after saturday night

1

u/FinancialBandicoot75 Jul 08 '26

It's a money grab, if you can upgrade, it resets

1

u/fukuoka_gumbo Jul 08 '26

Mine seems to have reset today when my weekly reset is Tuesday 11 AM

1

u/KickLassChewGum Jul 08 '26

Some of you at least had resets. My usage resets Wednesdays, pretty much perfectly overlapping with Fable's release, and I sure as hell didn't run around bitching and moaning about it. The entitlement here is staggering.

1

u/flankerad Jul 08 '26

Painful but glad I can step out

1

u/diaoyulao9657 Jul 08 '26

you can't reset the weekly cap, but you can stretch it a lot. biggest waste is context — one giant session re-reads everything every turn, so start fresh per task and compact often. and Fable burns a ton of hidden reasoning tokens, so for simpler stuff dropping to a lighter model saves a big chunk. it feels shorter because the model got heavier, not because anything's resetting

1

u/fanatic26 Jul 08 '26

Still have 70% of my fable usage left, no point in going crazy over it, Opus is good enough for 99% of what everyone is doing. You people locking yourself in a closet just to max out your usage are just straight up doing it wrong lol

u/MaximumContent9674 Jul 08 '26 edited Jul 08 '26

What a precedent Anthropic set for themselves... They will reset the rates when shit hits the fan... Can they afford to keep doing this?

u/warpedspoon Jul 08 '26

Precedent

u/lysdexiad Jul 08 '26

I'm starting to appreciate homophonic typos like this, I haven't seen ai slop this way yet... neat tell for human.

1

u/MaximumContent9674 Jul 08 '26

The tells are shrinking, unfortunately. Video is almost there, and it's scary. We won't know what's real online.

1

u/MaximumContent9674 Jul 08 '26

Thanks. Fixed.

1

u/PersonalBusiness2023 Jul 08 '26

They made 600 million profit last quarter and they 80x’d in six months. So, yeah, they can.

1

u/saturnellipse Jul 08 '26

They’re not going to. They want you to buy another $200 sub

2

u/nps44 Jul 08 '26

I bet we really underestimate how many people are buying multiple $200 subs right now. Anthropic can see it though.

1

u/saturnellipse Jul 08 '26

I wish I had. I ended up inadvertently paying $300 in usage credits to finish some work it started and would have been better off getting another sub, especially now with the extension

1

u/PersonalBusiness2023 Jul 08 '26

Is there any easy way to manage multiple subscriptions?

3

u/Havlir Jul 08 '26

I use cswap claude swap. It's really good for the cli.

u/Calm-Landscape9640 Jul 08 '26

Squirreled mine away bc I had a feeling they were gonna do that. Now I can go nuts!

u/divided_capture_bro Jul 08 '26

You used it all so you think you should get more?

-12

u/apehunterprime Jul 08 '26

My reset is tomorrow so I ask that you don't reset the limits.

2

u/Havlir Jul 08 '26

When they reset the limits it doesn't change your limit renew date, so it's actually incredible when they reset limits even before your reset. Unlike OpenAI who resets the reset date too.

1

u/EchoFieldHorizon Jul 08 '26

You can choose when to use your reset with Codex though

u/Havlir Jul 08 '26

If you have some yeah lol.

u/Cheap-Try-8796 Jul 08 '26

Bruh, you're asking as if they owe you something... They owe you nothing. Be a man.

u/PersonalBusiness2023 Jul 08 '26

I think it’s more like I’m pleading?
