 Claude ACP runs that end with a typed provider-quota error retain the quota
 classification and any parsed reset time. Recovery waits until that time, or
 uses its existing one-hour quota backoff when no reset time is available.
+This includes the Claude bridge's typed “The Claude account has no available

 The adapter inspects the terminal provider message in memory; the run result
 and run log retain only the generic failure message, recovery labels, and reset
