What's Wrong?

Description: > Yesterday, my /usage showed approximately 25% remaining with a scheduled reset for Tuesday.

Today, the usage was spontaneously reset to 0% (currently at 10% after some use), but the reset date has now shifted to Friday. This is problematic as it effectively extends my usage cycle and changes the promised reset schedule without warning.

This seems to be a synchronization bug where a mid-cycle reset forces a new 7-day window from the moment of the reset, rather than sticking to the original schedule.

It is frustrating that the reset date is not static. Moving the reset from Tuesday to Friday effectively forces me to wait 3-4 extra days for my next full quota, which feels like a loss of service value

What Should Happen?

The usage reset date should be predictable and static.

If a mid-cycle synchronization occurs, it should respect the previously established reset date (Tuesday) rather than pushing it forward 7 days from the moment of the sync.

The reset schedule should ideally follow a fixed weekly pattern (e.g., every Friday at a specific time) to avoid "drifting" or penalizing users for when they choose to start their coding session.

Users should not lose days of their subscription cycle due to automated system resets.

Error Messages/Logs

Steps to Reproduce

Run claude in the terminal and check usage status with the /usage command.

Observe the scheduled reset date (In my case, it was set to Tuesday with ~25% usage remaining).

Wait 24 hours and run /usage again.

Observe that the usage has been reset to 0% (or current usage), but the scheduled reset date has spontaneously shifted 7 days into the future (to Friday) instead of remaining on Tuesday.

This sequence shows that the reset logic is not tied to a fixed weekly schedule but is triggered/shifted by internal system events.

Additional Information

This shift from Tuesday to Friday feels like losing 3-4 days of the subscription period I am paying for. It makes the service unpredictable for planning larger coding tasks.
