Configure a session limit
Set maxAiCredits to the AI Credits soft cap for the session's current accounting window. Usage is checked after model calls return, so one response can exceed the configured value before the runtime blocks the next model call. The SDK forwards this value to the Copilot CLI when it creates or resumes the session.

Observe budget events
Applications can subscribe to session events to update UI when the soft cap changes or the session reaches the exhausted-budget flow.
| Event type | When it is emitted | Important fields |
|---|---|---|
session.session_limits_ | Active session limits changed. A null sessionLimits value means no limits are active. | session |
session.usage_checkpoint | The runtime records durable aggregate usage for resume and accounting. | totalNanoAiu, total |
session_limits_ | The session reached the exhausted-budget flow and needs a user decision before continuing. | requestId, maxAiCredits, usedAiCredits |
session_limits_ | The exhausted-limit prompt was resolved. | requestId, response.action, response.additional, response.max |
Use the generated event types for the SDK language you are using. For example, TypeScript narrows by event.type:
session.on((event) => {
if (event.type === "session_limits_exhausted.requested") {
showBudgetDialog({
requestId: event.data.requestId,
maxAiCredits: event.data.maxAiCredits,
usedAiCredits: event.data.usedAiCredits,
});
}
});
