Summary
Anthropic said it doubled five-hour Claude Code limits for paid plans, removed peak-hours limit reductions for Pro and Max, and raised API limits for Opus models as part of a compute deal for the full capacity of SpaceX's Colossus 1. The announcement turns raw compute supply into an immediate product-level change for heavy Claude users.
What changed
Anthropic raised Claude Code and Opus API limits and disclosed a compute partnership to use the full capacity of SpaceX's Colossus 1 data center.
Why it matters
Usage limits have been a daily bottleneck for coding-agent workflows. Tying a visible limit increase to a named compute partner turns infrastructure capacity into a competitive product surface for Anthropic's developer stack.
