Claude-Autopilot's Auto Resume feature solves this dilemma perfectly. The extension monitors Claude Code's usage limit status in real-time, automatically pauses queue processing when the limit is reached, and resumes execution immediately after each limit reset (usually once every 5 hours). The implementation is as follows:
- Automatically detects the state of API calls and accurately determines when to pause.
- Built-in timer continuously monitors limit resets
- Automatically loads the original task context when resuming to ensure consistency
- User-adjustable check intervals in the settings (recommended to keep the default 5 hours)
The entire process is fully automated without human intervention, making it particularly suitable for scenarios where high volume tasks need to be handled.
