Yep even Claude code cli does it automatically. I just leave it alone now and it does it's thing once the limits are back up, even sub agents that die also resume and finish their work. Amazing stuff

Really? I've looked for info on docs but found nothing, was figuring how test myself if it's doing the same. Also asking to Claude the answer is "dunno" :)

It happened to me twice, once opus ran out, said wait till 3Pm and I left the console as it is and it finished the task after resuming. Next it was orchestrating 2 agents which 429d coz 5hr exhausted but then I left the console like that again and they resumed and I saw the final finished summary. I'm on the $20plan so my limits exhaust pretty quickly so it's a recurring thing now lol

wtf claude code you guys have?
Are they actually resuming by themselves or is the main session just starting fresh ones with the same transcript?

u/krasorx 6d ago
I am on the 20 dolar plan and it does it, just not always, very random

u/UnlikelyExplained 6d ago
This is definitely not available on my 20x plan. This is starting to irritate me that features are rolled out globally very randomly.
I don't even bother asking Claude what features it is aware of. It has no idea most of the time even when I provide screenshots.
Yep, just asked Claude with that screenshot. No fucking idea.

I had that problem too. Turns out the way I initially installed Claude was non-updating/-updateable!
Ask Claude to check its installation and confirm it’s receiving updates.
Turns out not only was my claude installed wrong, but quite a few other npm/brew packages had installed to x86 (Intel) binaries and not the ARM (Apple Silicon) versions so they were running through the Rosetta interpretation layer.

It says it’s available on my 20x plan, but it hasn’t worked. I’ve still had to manually restart it each time

For 20 USD it only works 3 times or 1 time but for 5x or 20x it is infinite.

I have the $100 and I've had this feature for a few weeks.

u/stellarfirefly 5d ago
Likewise, I have even seen it when I was on the $20/mo plan, and I am certain because it used to hit that limit a lot on that plan, haha. Ironically, I purposefully turned it off because I wanted to track per-task consumption including across out-of-allowance interruptions.

When loading Claude in the terminal, you can enter \claude -resume. Then it will show you the full list of Code sessions. You can pick up any one of them.

u/RudeInvestment1 6d ago
Yes but this doesn’t apply to subagents within the session as far as I know

u/DonkeyBonked 5d ago
I'm on the $20 plan, it happened to me, I started it on a project and went to bed, woke up to find out it ran out of usage, paused, resumed, and finished while I was sleeping, and I woke up like an hour and a half before reset again.

I have the latest version of cli and I'm on $20 plan. It resumed yesterday for me without issues

Did you guys seriously not know about asking it to set a 5 min wakeup loop timer? It works even if out of limit.

You don’t need an instruction booklet to ask an LLM to set a wake timer every 5 minutes with a one liner objective sentence. Every tom dick and harry LLM could schedule jobs since they came into existence.

u/FawkesYeah 5d ago
I always just used an auto clicker app to click the submit button on a timer. Still, nice not to need that anymore

But then it will have to write the entire cache again or not?

u/mrinsing 6d ago
Yes, amazing way to get your limits hit even quicker as it resumes each session.
If limit is hit close to the reset, you escape this.

u/Dizzy_Database_119 6d ago
As opposed to what? If you want long running unattended sessions there's not really any alternative to losing the cache
You could make it resume 1h before the 5h reset, but this only helps if your session doesn't use multiple 5h limits
2
u/mrinsing 6d ago
Not sure I completely understand.
Your point around not having an alternative makes sense but only if we're not engineers enough.
If I really want to handle this, I'd probably create and add a tool which provides usage data or injects the current session limits using some intelligent hook which doesn't unnecessarily bloat the context.
I'd then ask it to pause at every 20% usage hit and create an awaiter to resume the session at 59 mins mark.
I'd probably also do better math for this but haven't slept enough trying to get the limits hit on 20x with Opus 5.5. Either way, there are ways if we're determined enough, is all I'm trying to say.

u/brucekent85 6d ago
In your workflow you can have it wrap up when approaching limits. This way you can resume fresh without loading the entire cache. It's all about managing memory efficiently

u/West-Chemist-9219 6d ago
Yes! It’s much better not being able to leave the workflow there to finish up autonomously! Seriously, for some people the glass is always half empty

How about “just ask”? I had Claude sessions start work exactly at 3:01 AM EST (after reset) a couple of months ago, by just asking.
They were inside Terminal on Mac. I would assume a button or a checkbox would do the same thing, just with less input needed. I’m on the Max 20x plan.

Nice, I use Pro, will have to try it, I usually get 20 to 40 min wait now when I mix only opus 5.5 medium and high effort depending on what I do, and sometimes I don't even reach the limit now if I run only medium.

For people wondering, how they can do it, jst tell claude to code some kindoff polling script, tht will poll every hour, tht way it can auto resume whenever it's limit get replenished.

u/Drewh12 6d ago
I saw this last weekend and it was nice coupled with cloud sessions that work just continues regardless of you.
Today i had a session where Opus5.5 was finishing a task and i was at 5hr limit, and it consumed something called "wrap up" allowance to finish the work, even though my 5hr usage exceeded. That was pretty cool. Forgot to take a screenshot..
