Notes
Reverified on October 17, 2026. The original @ClaudeDevs thread independently confirms Pro, Max, and Team eligibility, Settings → Usage redemption, and the October 22 use-by date. Its reset announcement supplies the exact UTC timestamp now recorded here. The exact expiry time, timezone, and restored usage windows remain account-specific or unspecified in the announcement; check Claude. This is the existing September 22 banked reset, not a new October reset. It appears once on the reset board and remains excluded from applied-reset statistics.
