Token limits

Claude Code usage limit reached: what to do

When Claude Code hits a usage or rate limit, pause, reduce context, and resume with a tighter workflow instead of repeating the same expensive prompt.

Stop and shrink context

When limits hit mid-task, avoid resending the entire conversation. Summarize the decision log, link to spec files, and continue in a fresh session with only what is needed for the next step.

Lean on files, not chat

Store specs and plans under docs/specs and docs/plans. The /agenkit workflow writes these artifacts so you can restart without re-brainstorming in the model.

Use memory commands between sessions

agenkit memory query and explain return scoped hits so the next session does not re-walk the repo.
