Bug Description
Bug: /usage shows "only available for subscription plans" despite having active Max subscription
Environment:
- Claude Code version: 2.0.76
- Platform: macOS
- Model: Opus 4.5
- Subscription: Max plan (180 EUR/month)
Problem:
The /usage command returns: "/usage is only available for subscription plans."
However, I have an active Max subscription (confirmed at claude.ai/settings/billing - shows "Max plan" with valid payment and invoices).
Timeline:
- Today (January 7, 2026) around 14:00 CET: /usage was working correctly
- Today around 18:30 CET: /usage stopped working with the above error
- No changes were made to my environment between these times
Verified:
- No ANTHROPIC_API_KEY environment variable set
- OAuth credentials exist in Keychain ("Claude Code-credentials")
- ~/.claude.json shows correct oauthAccount with my email
- Logged out and back in - problem persists
- Same issue in both terminal Claude Code and Desktop app
Related GitHub issue: #11915
This appears to be a server-side authentication/recognition issue where Claude Code intermittently fails to recognize Max subscriptions.
