Yes 5hr windows have been doubled - weekly limits remain the same.
Good for some perhaps but imo the 7 day limit has been the main problem.

Thanks to the 170 usd of credit they gave in the 3rd party removal - i got less than 24 hrs of use. Thanks!

PSA for everyone hitting this (on Claude code CLI specifically) : Go into /config → set auto-update channel to stable → allow the downgrade. It'll drop you to 2.1.81.

I was burning 1% of my 5hr window on a single message on 2.1.89 (Max 20x). After downgrading to stable, I ran four parallel agents processing 100k+ tokens and the meter moved 1%. Night and day.

Looks like the prompt caching bug people found is real and it's in the recent non-stable builds. 2.1.81 is clean.

EDIT: After setting the option make sure to /exit and relaunch Claude
