● I don't have visibility into your account's usage limits or billing — that's managed by Anthropic's infrastructure outside my context. A few things
that could explain it:

  1. Usage isn't per-session — it's cumulative across all sessions in a billing period. The earlier research agents in this conversation (and any other

conversations today) all count toward it.

  1. Opus 4.6 tokens are expensive — the deep research agents we ran (DSA codebase exploration, Cloudflare-Shopify partnership research, ad blocker

deep dive) consumed significant input+output tokens, especially with web searches and large file reads.

  1. "Extra usage" is the overage bucket beyond your plan's base allocation. If you've been using Claude Code heavily this billing cycle, you may have

already consumed the base + extra.

If you think it's an error, you can:

Want to continue with the plan writeup? I still have the research results from the agents that completed — we can proceed without needing to spawn
more heavy research agents.
