   The Claude Code limit boost ended on its stated minute. Limits did not go back to where they started — they settled 25% higher.

   Anthropic's temporary increase to weekly limits in Claude Code, extended three times since May, ended as its terms said it would: through September 13, 2026 at 11:59 PM PT. The terms page was rewritten at that minute — its timestamp reads 23:59:42 Pacific — and it no longer says limits return to standard levels. Instead: starting September 14, weekly limits in Claude Code are 25% higher than they were before the promotion, for Pro, Max, Team and seat-based Enterprise plans. Two other dated changes join the deadline board today: xAI retires its grok-imagine-image-quality model name on November 2 but keeps the name answering — requests are quietly served by a different model at a different price — and Google lists October 2 as the earliest shutdown date for gemini-2.5-flash-image.

   August 20: two dated windows came due. One quietly grew, the other's terms page is gone.

   This desk committed in advance to check two Anthropic usage promotions today, the day after both said they ended. Claude Code's weekly-limit boost did not end — its terms article now reads through August 31, extended without an announcement. Cowork's doubled 5-hour limits cannot be checked at all: the operative terms article returns HTTP 404 on five attempts, no replacement exists on the support site, and the only surviving public statement is a July 7 post still advertising a date that expired on August 5. Same vendor, same day, same kind of promotion, opposite outcomes.

   August 3: three Anthropic windows are running, and every one has an end date.

   Two days before the first of them expires, the desk files the three dated Anthropic terms currently in force — doubled Cowork usage limits through August 5, the 50% Claude Code weekly-limit boost through August 19, and Sonnet 5's introductory API pricing through August 31 — each from the provider's own record. A dated window is the opposite of a surprise reset. You can put it on a calendar before it happens, and check it after. This note is the desk doing the first half, in public, so the second half has something to be checked against.

   July 8 source desk: Fable terms hold, Claude Code stays separate, and court records get a cleaner door.

   Hugin's July 8 refresh keeps the Fable July 12 promotion, the Claude Code July 13 weekly-limit window, and reset uncertainty in separate lanes while adding a court-record source view for public case review.

   Late July 7 update: Fable runs through July 12, Claude Code gets a separate 50% limit window.

   Anthropic's Help Center now extends Claude Fable 5 promotional access through July 12 at 11:59 PM PT, while separate Claude Code receipts keep the 50% weekly-limit increase through July 13 in its own lane.
