Feature request: roll over unused weekly usage to the next week (within the billing month)

Summary: Please consider letting unused weekly usage on paid plans carry over into the following week, with a monthly reset.

I'm a paying subscriber and a heavy daily user - Claude Code has become central to my engineering and research work, and I'm grateful for it. One piece of honest feedback on how the weekly usage limits work.

Right now the weekly allotment resets each week, and whatever I haven't used just disappears. I'd like to ask you to consider letting unused weekly usage carry over into the following week.

The reasoning, from a paying customer's side: my workload isn't even. Some weeks - the day job, travel, life - I barely touch my allotment. Other weeks I'm heads-down trying to catch up, and I run straight into the weekly cap and have to stop, even though the week before I used almost nothing. I already paid for that capacity. Losing it in the light weeks and then getting blocked in the heavy ones means I'm paying for time I'm not actually allowed to use.

I'm not asking for unlimited banking. A monthly expiry on anything rolled over would be completely fair - if I haven't used it by the end of the billing month, let it reset then. But within a month, letting unused weekly capacity carry forward to cover a catch-up week would match what I actually paid for, and would make the limits feel fair instead of penalizing anyone whose work comes in bursts.

Thanks for considering it - and thanks for the product. It's genuinely changed how I work.
