[Docs] Cloud scheduled task limits per plan tier are undocumented

Documentation Type

Missing documentation (feature not documented)

Section/Topic

Schedule tasks on the web — cloud scheduled tasks

Current Documentation

The page states "Scheduled tasks are available to all Claude Code on the web users, including Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise" but does not mention any per-plan limits on the number of tasks or daily sessions allowed.

What's Wrong or Missing?

When attempting to create a 4th cloud scheduled task on the Max 5x ($100/month) plan, the UI returns the error: "Your plan gets 3 daily cloud scheduled sessions. Disable or delete an existing schedule to continue."

This limit is not documented anywhere — not on the cloud scheduled tasks page, the plan comparison page, the usage limits help center article, or the Claude Code pricing documentation. Users designing scheduled task architectures have no way to know this constraint exists until they hit it.

Suggested Improvement

Add a section to the cloud scheduled tasks documentation (and ideally the plan comparison page) that specifies per-plan limits, including:

• Number of concurrent cloud scheduled task definitions allowed per plan tier (Pro, Max 5x, Max 20x, Team, Enterprise)
• Whether the limit applies to task definitions (how many can be configured) or daily runs (how many can execute per day)
• Whether paused/disabled tasks count toward the limit

A simple table would suffice, for example:

| Plan | Cloud Scheduled Tasks |
|------|----------------------|
| Pro | X |
| Max 5x | 3 |
| Max 20x | X |
| Team | X |
| Enterprise | X |

Impact

Low - Minor confusion or inconvenience

Additional Context

• Encountered on Max 5x ($100/month) plan on March 27, 2026
• The error message itself ("Your plan gets 3 daily cloud scheduled sessions") implies limits vary by plan, but no plan's limit is documented
• Cloud scheduled tasks launched very recently (research preview, late March 2026), so this may simply be an oversight in the initial documentation
• Desktop/local scheduled tasks do not appear to have the same limit
