Problem Statement

Currently, Claude Code displays usage warnings at fixed thresholds (50%, 75%, 90%).

I'd like the ability to configure when the first warning appears — for example,
suppress notifications until I hit 80% of my weekly usage limit.

Use Case

When I'm well under my limit (e.g., 38%), the warnings are distracting and not
actionable. I only want to be notified when I'm actually close to running out.

Proposed Solution

Add a setting in settings.json such as:
"usageWarningThreshold": 80

This would allow users to set the minimum percentage at which warnings appear.

Current Behavior

Warnings appear at 50%, 75%, and 90% — hardcoded, not configurable.

Expected Behavior

Users can configure the threshold (e.g., only warn at 80%+).
