The /usage command previously worked for Claude Pro subscribers, displaying current session usage. It now shows an error message stating it is "only available for subscription plans" — despite the user being a Claude Pro subscriber.

The error message is also confusing/contradictory: it implies you need a subscription to use the feature, but Pro subscribers are seeing it too.

Description

The /usage command previously worked for Claude Pro subscribers, displaying current session usage. It now shows an error message stating it is "only available for subscription plans" — despite the user being a Claude Pro subscriber.

The error message is also confusing/contradictory: it implies you need a subscription to use the feature, but Pro subscribers are seeing it too.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Log in to Claude Code with a Claude Pro subscription (not an API key)
  2. Run /usage
  3. Observe the error dialog

Expected Behavior

/usage displays current session usage, as it did previously.

Actual Behavior

An error dialog appears stating the command is "only available for subscription plans", then dismisses. No usage information is shown.

Environment

  • Claude Code version: 2.1.104
  • Platform: Windows 10
  • Auth method: Claude Pro subscription (OAuth login, not API key)

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue may be resolved by verifying the subscription status and permissions for the Claude Pro plan, as the error message suggests a potential mismatch between the user's subscription and the required plan for the /usage command.

Guidance

  • Check the subscription status and permissions for the Claude Pro plan to ensure it includes access to the /usage command.
  • Verify that the OAuth login is correctly authenticated and authorized for the Claude Pro subscription.
  • Review the Claude Code version (2.1.104) for any known issues or updates related to subscription plans and the /usage command.
  • Test the /usage command with a different subscription plan or auth method (if possible) to isolate the issue.

Notes

The issue may be specific to the Claude Pro subscription or the OAuth login method, and further investigation is needed to determine the root cause.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Verify subscription status and permissions, as the issue may be related to a configuration or authentication problem rather than a version-specific bug.
