[BUG] Weekly usage jumps +2% in ~5 minutes; /settings/usage shows “Missing permissions” banner

Same here. Got the banner for the same plan a couple of days ago and it doesn't go away.

Same here, visiting Usage page shows popup in top right corner : "Missing permissions. Please check with Anthropic support if you think this is in error." So that's what I'm doing. :)

Same issue here on Pro plan

I've just ran /status and this is the response:

I don't have a Pro plan, and similar thing is happening to me as well

Im on the Max Plan and have this issue.

So I figured out the permissions issue and also noticed a strange usage increase while not actually using Claude, and only running /usage and launching the Claude Code CLI a few times.

If you are interested details are here. If not, logging out and back in will likely fix your permissions issue.

@blazejp83 @GDS75 @UltimateByte @pavelbe - tagging you four you as you mentioned the permission issue was impacting you. You might just need to logout and back in again. That fixed it for me.

This issue has been inactive for 30 days. If the issue is still occurring, please comment to let us know. Otherwise, this issue will be automatically closed in 30 days for housekeeping purposes.

Having same issue, logging out and back in did not fix

This is happening to me suddenly. It seems that the errors are suddenly increasing.

@bcherny is this a known outage/incident?

Same here. Max user, running claude code with /usage a couple time did not fix.

Happening here as well. Noticed in the last hour.

In my case I move to other site to have different wifi connection and seemed to work.

Don't know if that was exactly what solved the issue, but I did that and suddenly started working back again.

yes~~ it works for me. thanks

It seems it has already been resolved in my case after the 5-hour limit reset

It works now.

I’m seeing what looks like the same family of issue, although in my case the most obvious symptom was on the Claude usage dashboard itself.

Environment:

• Plan: Max 20x ($200)
• Date observed: 2026-03-06
• Timezone: Asia/Seoul (KST)
• OS: Windows 10
• Terminal: Git Bash
• Claude Code version: 2.1.69
• Models used: mostly Opus, with Sonnet and Haiku also used frequently via subagents

What I observed:

• On https://claude.ai/settings/usage, my usage jumped from 91% to 99%
• That is an abrupt 8 percentage point increase
• There was no proportional increase in workload
• My workflow was materially the same as usual

Why this seems wrong:

• On a Max 20x ($200) plan, an 8-point jump like that felt disproportionate to the actual work performed
• I observed this on the Claude AI dashboard, not because of any unusual new warning beyond the normal usage-threshold behavior
• This makes it look more like a reporting/accounting issue, or possibly enforcement logic surfacing through the dashboard, rather than a normal change in usage

I’m not claiming a root cause, but could you please check whether this is coming from:

• reporting/display logic
• usage accounting logic
• enforcement-side logic

If useful, I can provide additional timestamps or screenshots.
