The promotion is ending; the limits are reverting to pre-promotion levels.

"From May 13, 2026 through August 19, 2026, your weekly usage limit in Claude Code is 50% higher."

During this period however they’ve released models which lots of people report to be significantly more chatty. Framing it purely as a promotion ending feels like you’re giving them a bit too much credit. I doubt it’s a coincidence they started this promotion a week before the release of 4.8.

If they remove that extra 50%, I'm moving my $200 to Codex. Good thing we will know tomorrow, just a day before renewal.

"Your subscription will auto renew on Aug 20, 2026."

But I doubt they will remove it, just like they didn't remove Fable from the subscription. There's simply too much competition.

Choco rations going up.

Double plus good, eh!
