Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
  • This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
  • I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

What's Wrong:

Plan: Claude Max 20x ($200/month) Claude Code version: v2.0.76 OS: macOS Current session usage: 10%, Extra Usage balance: $0.00 Every CLI command (including claude --version, claude logout, claude config) returns API Error: 400 "You're out of extra usage" CLI is completely unusable despite plan limits not being reached

Steps to reproduce:

Have Max 20x plan with Extra Usage balance at $0.00 Run any claude command Get "You're out of extra usage" error regardless of actual plan usage

What Should Happen?

CLI should use plan quota (currently 10% used), not require Extra Usage credits. Web interface works normally with the same account.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Have Claude Max 20x plan with Extra Usage balance at $0.00
  2. Run any claude command (claude, claude --version, claude logout, claude config)
  3. Every command returns "out of extra usage" error
  4. Web interface (claude.ai) works normally with same account

Additional Information

  • Plan usage: Session 10%, Weekly 5% (all well within limits)
  • Extra Usage balance: $0.00 (auto-reload disabled)
  • Web interface works normally, CLI is completely unusable
  • rm -rf ~/.claude + claude login did not resolve the issue
  • Issue persists across all commands including claude --version

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue can likely be resolved by updating the CLI to correctly handle the Extra Usage balance and plan quota, or by temporarily adding Extra Usage credits to bypass the error.

Guidance

  • Verify that the plan usage is indeed within limits (10% used) and Extra Usage balance is $0.00, as stated.
  • Check the API documentation for any specific requirements or restrictions related to Extra Usage and plan quotas.
  • Consider adding a small amount of Extra Usage credits to test if the CLI works as expected when the balance is not zero.
  • Review the differences between the current version (v2.0.76) and previous versions to identify potential changes that may have introduced this regression.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue seems to be related to the API and plan usage rather than a specific code problem.

Notes

The issue appears to be a regression, and the Last Working Version is not specified, which might be helpful in identifying the cause. The fact that the web interface works normally suggests that the issue is specific to the CLI.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Add a small amount of Extra Usage credits to test if the CLI works as expected, as this might help identify if the issue is solely related to the Extra Usage balance or if there's a more complex problem with the plan quota handling.
