Claude Code rule change — August 18, 2026

POLICY Rule change 2026-08-18 2026-08-18 @ClaudeDevs

$ Claude Code changed its usage limit rules on August 18, 2026.

The 50% boost to weekly limits is extended through 31 August. Anthropic says it hopes to make the increase permanent, but strong demand for its models means capacity may be tight in the coming weeks.

每周限额的 50% 提升延长至 8 月 31 日。官方表示希望把这个提升永久写进套餐,但模型需求太强,未来几周容量可能紧张。
