Preflight Checklist
- [x] I searched existing issues and did not find a precise report for this post reset behavior.
- [x] This is a single bug report.
- [x] I am using the latest available Claude Code version on my machine.
What Is Wrong?
This is a follow up to #26812.
The weekly reset time passed in Usage, but Claude Code CLI still returns API Error: Rate limit reached for every prompt.
Initial symptom was already reported in #26812. After waiting for the weekly reset boundary to pass, the error still persists. So this is not only a pre reset mismatch, it also continues after reset.
What Should Happen?
When the weekly reset time has passed, backend limiter state should refresh and CLI prompts should be accepted.
