Common Limit Errors

"Project Limit Reached" Error message: 🚫 Project limit reached (5/5) You cannot create more projects. Upgrade or delete existing projects.

Why it happens: Created maximum allowed projects for your plan Free: 1 project at a time Pro: 10-12 projects per month

Solutions:

Option 1: Delete old projects

  1. Dashboard → Projects

  2. Find projects you don't need

  3. Download important ones first

  4. Delete to free quota

  5. Now can create new projects

Option 2: Upgrade plan

  1. Dashboard → Billing → Upgrade

  2. Choose higher tier

  3. Immediate limit increase

  4. Create new projects right away

Option 3: Wait (if monthly limit) Some plans reset monthly Check "Resets in X days" Wait for reset Create new projects after reset

"AI Request Limit Reached" Error message: 🚫 AI request limit exceeded (100/100) Upgrade to continue or wait 12 days for reset.

Why it happens: Sent maximum AI messages this month Each message to AI counts Limit resets monthly

Solutions:

Option 1: Edit manually Code editor still works Make changes yourself No AI needed for simple edits Preview and terminal still function

Option 2: Upgrade plan

  1. Billing → Upgrade

  2. Higher limit immediately

  3. Continue using AI

  4. Pro: 500-1000 requests/month

Option 3: Wait for reset Resets on billing date Check "Resets in X days" Plan next month better Combine requests to use fewer

Tip: Be efficient with AI requests ❌ Multiple requests: "Add a button" "Make it blue" "Center it"

✅ One combined request: "Add a centered blue button"

"Token Limit Exceeded" Error message: 🚫 Token limit reached (100K/100K) Your account has used all AI tokens this month.

Why it happens: AI processes tokens (words) Your prompts + AI responses = tokens consumed ~4 characters = 1 token

Solutions:

Option 1: More concise prompts Be brief and specific Avoid long explanations AI responds with less too

Option 2: Manual editing Edit code yourself for simple changes Save AI for complex tasks Stretch remaining tokens

Option 3: Upgrade Pro: 1M tokens/month Much higher limit Rarely hit limit

Option 4: Wait for reset Monthly reset on billing date Plan better next month

"Storage Limit Exceeded" Error message: 🚫 Storage limit exceeded (110 MB / 100 MB) Cannot upload files or create large projects.

Why it happens: All projects' files combined exceed storage Images and assets use most space

Solutions:

Option 1: Delete unused projects

  1. Review project list

  2. Download important ones

  3. Delete old/test projects

  4. Frees storage immediately

Option 2: Optimize images Compress images before upload Use online tools (TinyPNG, etc.) Convert to WebP format Smaller files, more storage

Option 3: Remove large assets Delete unused images Remove old files Clean up duplicates Check node_modules not included

Option 4: Upgrade plan Pro: 1 GB storage More room for assets

Planning to Avoid Limits

Estimate Your Needs

Projects: Building 5-10 projects/month → Pro plan Building 20+ projects/month → Team plan Just experimenting → Free plan

AI Usage: Light use (50-100 requests/month) → Free Regular use (200-500) → Pro Heavy use (1000+) → Team

Storage: Code only (< 100 MB) → Free/Pro With assets (100 MB - 1 GB) → Pro Many large assets (1 GB+) → Team

Usage Optimization

Conserve AI requests: Combine multiple changes in one message Use manual editing for simple tweaks Plan before requesting

Manage storage: Compress images Delete test projects Clean up regularly Use external hosting for very large files

Project management: Delete completed projects Download before deleting Archive vs active projects

When to Upgrade

Clear Signs Upgrade if: Hitting limits 2-3 months in a row Regularly getting warnings Limits blocking your work Need more to be productive

Stay on current plan if: Rarely hit limits Occasional warnings Can manage within limits Usage decreasing

Cost-Benefit Calculate: Time lost to limits > Cost of upgrade? → Upgrade worth it Time spent managing limits > Upgrade cost? → Upgrade makes sense Can work within limits comfortably? → Stay on current plan
