What's Wrong?

I noticed in v2.0.55 (or 1-2 versions earlier) when launching clade code it automatically initializes my Pro usage plan. Post-initialization my plan shows 1% usage and the countdown timer

Previously to upgrading to this version and no other settings change, I could launch CC and change the settings then exit without starting a Usage Plan session.

I want to confirm this is a bug and not a feature change.

What Should Happen?

I should be able to launch CC without starting a session to be able to configure or check settings
