Claude Code usage and rate limit confusion and reset times

April 3, 2026Dan, Chubby, Simon Willison

Multiple posts complain about hitting Claude Code limits faster than before and confusion about usage reporting and reset times, including the meaning of the Sonnet-only weekly bar and mid-day resets.

Anthropic says hitting rate limits so fast in Claude Code is your fault.
All users are saying they're reaching their rate limits faster than before.
Anyone know what the "Current week (Sonnet only)" bar in Claude Code means when you run the "/usage" command?
“Claude usage limit reached. Your limit will reset at 3pm”
