Problem Statement

Workflow breaks when quota or rate limits are reached. Current user experience:

  1. Claude Code is working on a task.
  2. The session reaches a usage/quota/rate limit.
  3. Claude Code displays a reset time.
  4. The task stops.
  5. The user must manually come back later and type continue or run claude --continue / claude --resume.
  6. If the user is away, asleep, or running a long task, the session remains blocked.
  7. In some cases, resuming later can also cause duplicated work, stale context, or extra quota usage.

I am not asking for a way to bypass Anthropic’s limits. The goal is to respect the limit, wait until the reset time, and resume safely.

Proposed Solution

I built cc-session-recover to solve a practical Claude Code workflow problem: when a coding session hits a usage/quota/rate limit, the user has to manually return later and resume the session with continue, claude --continue, or claude --resume.

No TMUX, no OS hacks

This feature request asks Claude Code to support this workflow natively, or expose stable hooks/APIs so tools like cc-session-recover can implement it reliably without brittle terminal scraping.
