Description
Short summary
Work in session halted with unclear message
Affected version or release
v1.1.14
Installation context
Windows
What happened?
During multiple sessions I got this. At first I was confused, as I am only at 40% of my monthly budget. Took me a minute to realize it might be a rate limit or something, and indeed, that was listed above.
Steps to reproduce
Expected behavior
- Clarify the message itself, it was not clear by itself
- I had 4 concurrent sessions with the same issue
- One session decided to go with "auto" by itself, but did not actually continue at all
Make it clear if this is a user account wide issue with the ratelimit, or only for the specific model (I had all 4 sessions on the same model).

Research direction
Start by reproducing the message on Windows v1.1.14 with multiple concurrent sessions using the same model, and compare it with the rate-limit information shown above it. Done means the user-facing message clearly states whether the limit is account-wide or model-specific, and explains whether switching to auto will actually continue the session.
