Feature Request: Configurable usage warning threshold
Preflight Checklist
- [x] I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
- [x] This is a single feature request (not multiple features)
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%+).
