What's Wrong?

When usage limit exceeded, Silent Session Termination — No Warning, No Error Message

When a session time or usage limit is reached, Claude frequently stops responding with no message or indication whatsoever. The UI remains in a "processing" state for 10–15+ minutes, leading me to believe the model is still working — when in reality the session has already been silently terminated.

OBSERVED BEHAVIOR

• No warning as the session approaches its limit
• No error or termination message at cutoff (occasionally a message appears, but this is inconsistent)
• UI stays in a "thinking" state indefinitely after cutoff

This issue appears to have worsened in the last 2 days, suggesting a possible regression or recent change to limit-handling logic.

Silent failure without user feedback is a critical UX flaw.

What Should Happen?

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
At minimum: a clear, deterministic message when the session limit is reached.

Ideally:

• Progressive warnings as usage approaches the limit (e.g., at 75%, 90%, 95%)
• A visible indicator of remaining session time or quota
• Graceful termination — allow the current response to complete or provide a short grace window
• Option to resume or recover context after cutoff

Error Messages/Logs

No messages. That is the complaint.

Steps to Reproduce

Exceed usage limits in claude code and it just stops untill usage time resets.

Sonnet (default)

Is this a regression?
