Anthropic Claude Code Session Limits Explained

Description

Come be part of the crew: https://www.crafterslab.dev So yeah... usage limits. If you're building with Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI coding tool right now, these limits aren't just some random number. They're the difference between shipping your feature and getting completely stuck mid-build. In this video I break down exactly how Claude's 5-hour session windows work, what you actually get on Pro vs Max 5x vs Max 20x, the weekly ceilings most people don't even know about, and the workflow hacks that saved me from burning through my entire usage in three days.
