Sep 22, 2026, 22:17 UTCconfidence: confirmed -> reported · 'are reseting the rate limit for all plus and pro users' is a present-progressive commitment, not a completion statement. No later source confirms. | Policy (claude): a first-party announcement of an imminent reset, unretracted after 48h, is treated as completed with confidence 'reported'; only confirms_completion evidence makes it 'confirmed'.
