Anthropic tightens usage limits for Claude Code – without telling users
Importance: 2 | # | claude, claude-code
Since Monday morning, Claude Code users have been hit with unexpectedly restrictive usage limits. The problems, many of which have been aired on Claude Code’s GitHub page, seem to be concentrated among heavy users of the service, many of whom are on the $200-a-month Max plan.
All you gotta do is inform the users. Anthropic has a lil-nvidia vibe as there's little to no competition to coding capabilites of other frontier labs. Cursor and claude-code interfaces are different enough that switching back and forth isn't frictionless.
