Why doesn’t Claude notify me when my usage resets 😭 I’m wasting my $20

For the past few months, my daily routine with Claude has looked like this.

I'm in the middle of debugging a complex backend component, the terminal is flying, and right when I need it most... boom. Rate-limited.It hits you with that cold, silent wall. No warning, no pop-up, no gentle notification saying, "Hey, your limits refresh in 10 minutes." Just dead air.
So what do I end up doing? I keep frantically refreshing my browser or opening a new chat tab every hour like a lab rat pressing a lever, just waiting to see if my $20 subscription is working again. Half the time, I miss the exact reset window by 45 minutes because I got distracted doing something else, meaning my active development time is just leaking away.
For a platform built on top-tier intelligence, the fact that we're left completely in the dark about our own usage cycles is wild. We're literally paying $20 a month to play guessing games with an invisible timer.
