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?

Two consecutive /ultrareview runs against the same PR crashed server-side before producing any findings, yet both were counted against my free quota (2 of 3 used). I'm now reluctant to retry with my last remaining credit.

Target PR: tlrktz/fids-review-2#1

Affected sessions:

  • session_01Mx5fMyYWY5u4b5hrBHWCpF
  • session_01XwsyDgEA8NTfMaN3WsbaPQ

Output returned in both cases: {"error":"Review crashed before producing findings. See session logs for details."}

Expected behavior:

  • The review completes and returns findings, OR
  • If the review crashes before producing findings, the run should not be counted against the free quota.

Requests:

  1. Refund the 2 consumed credits, since neither run produced output.
  2. Investigate the crash via the session logs above.
  3. Consider making quota consumption contingent on a successful findings response.

Environment:

  • Claude Code CLI
  • Platform: darwin (macOS)
  • Repo: git, branch initial

What Should Happen?

  • The review completes and returns findings, OR
  • If the review crashes before producing findings, the run should not be counted against the free quota.

This sucks.                                                                                           
                                                                                                                           
⏺ That's frustrating — both runs crashed server-side before producing findings, which shouldn't count against your quota. I'd recommend reporting this at https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues with the two session IDs (session_01Mx5fMyYWY5u4b5hrBHWCpF and session_01XwsyDgEA8NTfMaN3WsbaPQ) so the team can refund the credits and investigate the crash.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Start Claude Code
  2. Run /ultrareview
  3. "API Error: Server is temporarily limiting requests (not your usage limit) · Rate limited"
  4. Ultrareview credit is decremented without having received anything for it

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue can be addressed by reporting the problem to the Claude Code team with the provided session IDs to investigate the crash and potentially refund the consumed credits.

Guidance

  • Report the issue to the Claude Code team with the session IDs session_01Mx5fMyYWY5u4b5hrBHWCpF and session_01XwsyDgEA8NTfMaN3WsbaPQ to investigate the crash.
  • Request a refund of the 2 consumed credits since neither run produced output.
  • Consider waiting for the team's response before attempting another /ultrareview run to avoid further credit consumption.
  • Review the session logs for details on the crash, as mentioned in the error message.

Example

No code snippet is necessary for this issue, as it appears to be related to the Claude Code service and its credit system rather than a code problem.

Notes

The root cause of the issue seems to be a server-side crash during the /ultrareview process, which is not directly related to the user's code or environment. The team's investigation and potential refund of credits are necessary to resolve the issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Report the issue and wait for the team's response before taking further action, as this approach allows for the team to investigate and potentially refund the credits without risking additional credit consumption.
