Bug Description I am on the $100 claude max plan and till a few days ago the usage limits were fine and I would hardly ever run into session limit even with intensive use. Now, for the past 2 days my usage has decreased drastically, just a few messages on plan mode with opus drained 11% of the usage! Even sonnet usage with new sessions is doing the same.

I came across some twitter threads that mentioned that this could be a bug- please help. If this goes on I will have to cancel the plan. Quite a few friends are also facing the same issue.

TL;DR

The recent drastic increase in usage despite decreased activity may be due to a bug, and reaching out to support or waiting for a fix might be necessary.

Guidance

  • Review recent changes in usage patterns or settings to ensure no unintended configuration changes are causing the issue.
  • Compare usage metrics before and after the problem started to identify any specific actions or features that might be contributing to the increased usage.
  • Since others are experiencing the same issue, monitoring the official channels or forums for updates on a potential bug fix is advisable.
  • Consider submitting a support ticket with the provided Feedback ID for personalized assistance.

Notes

The lack of error messages or detailed usage logs limits the ability to provide a more specific cause or solution. The issue seems to be related to a potential bug rather than a configuration problem.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Monitor official channels for updates on a potential bug fix, as it seems to be a widespread issue affecting multiple users.
