extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue is likely due to excessive token usage during the installation of the GitHub app, causing it to fail and get stuck.

Guidance

  • Verify the token usage by checking the Anthropic API documentation to see if there are any limits on token usage and how to optimize it.
  • Check the Claude Code CLI documentation to see if there are any options to limit or manage token usage during the installation process.
  • Try to install the GitHub app in a more controlled environment to see if the issue is specific to the current setup.
  • Consider reaching out to the Anthropic API support team to see if they can provide any guidance on managing token usage.

Notes

The issue seems to be related to the Anthropic API and token usage, but without more information about the API limits and the Claude Code CLI options, it's difficult to provide a more specific solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Try to optimize token usage during the installation process by limiting the number of requests or using a more efficient installation method, if available.
