+
+The `--limit` option sets a maximum [Agent Minutes](https://aws.amazon.com/transform/pricing/) budget for the session. Agent Minutes reflect active agent work time, not wall clock time. When the limit is reached, the CLI displays a message and exits with instructions to resume:
+    
+    
+    ⚠️ Budget limit reached: 30.00 / 30.00 Agent Minutes. Exiting.
+
+You can resume the conversation later with an increased limit:
+    
+    
+    atx --conversation-id <conversation_id> -t --limit <increased_limit>
