Why caps exist #

Caps are guardrails. They stop a runaway agent loop from spending more than it should, even if you have plenty of credits. Your plan sets the ceilings; we enforce them on every run.

The three caps #

CapWhat it limitsStarterProTeamBusiness
Per-runA single Vibe run$2$3$5$10
Per-dayAll Vibe spend in a UTC day$10$25$50$100
Per-monthAll Vibe spend in a calendar month$100$250$500$1,500

What you see when a cap fires #

When a cap is hit, your next Vibe run is refused with a clear message:

  • Per-run cap — "This run reached the cap and was stopped." Your wallet is only charged for what the agent used before stopping.
  • Per-day cap — "Daily Vibe spend reached. Resets tomorrow."
  • Per-month cap — "Monthly Vibe spend reached. Resets on the 1st."

Caps and credits work together #

Whichever runs out first is the one that stops you. A Pro user with 30,000 credits is still capped at $250/month of Vibe spend; a Pro user with $5 of credits can't spend their full $250/month cap.
