claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Bug] Usage allocation calculation inaccurate for short session durations [1 comments, 2 participants]

[{"error":"MaxFileReadTokenExceededError: File content (94284 tokens) exceeds maximum allowed tokens (25000). Use offset and limit parameters to read specific portions of the file, or search for specific content instead of reading the whole file.\n at yR_ (B:/~BUN/root/src/entrypoints/cli.js:4845:12722)\n at processTicksAndRejections (native:7:39)","timestamp":"2026-04-25T01:15:05.834Z"}]

TL;DR

The issue can likely be mitigated by using the offset and limit parameters to read specific portions of the file instead of reading the whole file.

Guidance

• The error message suggests that the file content exceeds the maximum allowed tokens, causing a MaxFileReadTokenExceededError.
• To verify the issue, check the file size and content to confirm it exceeds the 25000 token limit.
• Consider using the offset and limit parameters to read specific portions of the file, as suggested in the error message.
• Review the code in cli.js at line 4845 to understand how the file is being read and how to implement the offset and limit parameters.

Example

No code example is provided as the issue does not contain sufficient information about the code implementation.

Notes

The issue may be specific to the better-agent-terminal and win32 platform, and the solution may vary depending on the specific use case and requirements.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Use the offset and limit parameters to read specific portions of the file, as this is a direct solution suggested by the error message and does not require upgrading to a fixed version.
