Bug Description

Hi all, found something I'd like to cross-check:

Behaviour: When the Claude OAuth is connected to Claude Code CLI, all token consumption is billed as extra usage rather than drawing from my Max plan quota.

Expected: Max plan quota should be consumed first; only overages should count as extra usage.

Questions:

  1. Is this just happening to me?
  2. Or have I enabled some setting (API key config, billing preference, etc.) that's defaulting it to pay-as-you-go?

If anyone runs the same setup, would appreciate a sanity check. Thanks!

extent analysis

TL;DR

Review the API key configuration and billing preferences to ensure they are set to utilize the Max plan quota before billing as extra usage.

Guidance

  • Verify the Claude OAuth connection settings in the Claude Code CLI to check if there are any specific configurations that might be causing the issue.
  • Check the billing preferences to see if there's an option to prioritize the Max plan quota over pay-as-you-go billing.
  • Compare the current setup with the expected behavior to identify any discrepancies in the configuration.
  • If possible, test the setup with a different API key or billing configuration to isolate the issue.

Notes

The issue seems to be related to the configuration of the Claude OAuth connection or the billing preferences, but without more information about the specific settings and configurations, it's difficult to provide a more detailed solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Review and adjust the API key configuration and billing preferences to ensure they align with the expected behavior, as the issue appears to be related to the current setup rather than a bug in the system.
