Summary

Ran /ultrareview on a local branch. The remote review crashed before producing any findings, but the run was still counted against my free-tier quota ("Free ultrareview 1 of 3").

Expected

If the review crashes before producing findings, the run should not be counted against the user's free-tier quota.

Ask

Please refund the run (restore to 3 of 3 free) and, if possible, fix the billing path so crashed runs are not charged going forward.

Environment

  • Claude Code CLI, Opus 4.7 (1M context)
  • macOS (Darwin 25.4.0)

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue can be mitigated by refunding the run and updating the billing path to exclude crashed reviews from being counted against the free-tier quota.

Guidance

  • Verify the session logs for details on the crash to identify potential causes and prevent future occurrences.
  • Check the Claude Code CLI documentation to see if there are any known issues or workarounds for review crashes.
  • Consider reaching out to the Claude support team to request a refund and to report the issue with the billing path.
  • Review the API error message to understand the rate limiting and see if there are any adjustments that can be made to avoid hitting the limit in the future.

Notes

The provided information does not include enough technical details to pinpoint the exact cause of the crash or to provide a code-level fix. The solution will likely involve adjustments to the billing system or the review process rather than a code change.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Refund the run and work with the Claude support team to update the billing path to correctly handle crashed reviews. This approach addresses the immediate issue and prevents future occurrences.
