TL;DR

Claim the $200 credit at claude.ai/settings/usage to resolve the "Third-party apps now draw from your extra usage" error.

Guidance

• The error message indicates that third-party apps now draw from extra usage, not plan limits, and a $200 credit has been added to get started.
• Claim the $200 credit at claude.ai/settings/usage to potentially resolve the issue.
• Check the plugin marketplace for any updates or missing plugins, as one of the errors mentions "Plugin not found in any marketplace".
• Verify that the symlinks are correctly created and permissions are set properly, as there are EPERM errors related to symlink operations.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems to be related to configuration and usage limits rather than code.

Notes

The error logs were truncated, so there might be additional information that could help resolve the issue. The $200 credit claim might not resolve all errors, especially the EPERM and plugin-related errors.

Recommendation

Apply the workaround by claiming the $200 credit, as it directly addresses one of the error messages and may help resolve the issue.
