Bug Description
The /usage command displays "only available for subscription plans" even when the user is logged in with a Claude Pro Account subscription.
This is a regression - /usage was working correctly until today (January 7, 2025) and suddenly stopped working with no changes on the user's end.
Steps to Reproduce
- Log in to Claude Code with a Claude Pro Account
- Verify authentication with
/status- confirms "Login method: Claude Pro Account" - Run
/usage
Expected Behavior
/usage should display plan usage limits and rate limit status for Pro subscribers, as it did previously.
Actual Behavior
/usage returns: "/usage is only available for subscription plans."
Environment
- Claude Code version: 2.0.76
- Platform: macOS (Darwin 25.2.0)
- Login method: Claude Pro Account (confirmed via
/status)
Additional Context
- The
/statuscommand correctly identifies the user as logged in with a Pro subscription /usagedoes not recognize this as a valid subscription plan- This was working correctly until today, suggesting a backend or recent update issue

Confirmed; looks like something went bad about 1600 GMT today; please fix ASAP!
Also the usage stats have disappeared from the web UI
hello. the limit % is returning null for the endpoints. a fix would be greatly appreciated!
Having the same problem. If you're going to enforce limits, I need to be able to track it.
Yup - definitely API behaviour change. I'd just written something yesterday to give me a pretty display of this info, came in this morning and it wasn't working.
Looks to be working again.
