Misleading 'Fast mode disabled by your organization' message on personal subscription

Resolved 💬 5 comments Opened Mar 17, 2026 by hansv Closed May 24, 2026

Description

On a personal subscription plan (no organization account), the debug log is filled with hundreds of lines saying:

Fast mode unavailable: Fast mode has been disabled by your organization

This is misleading — there is no organization. The message implies an org admin has disabled the feature, when the actual reason is likely that fast mode requires extra usage credits or a specific plan tier.

Expected Behavior

For personal subscription users, the message should reflect the actual reason, e.g.:

  • "Fast mode requires extra usage credits to be enabled"
  • "Fast mode is not available on your current plan"

Environment

  • Claude Code version: 2.1.77
  • Platform: macOS (Darwin 24.6.0)
  • Auth: OAuth token, firstParty API provider
  • Plan: Personal subscription (not organization/team)
  • CLAUDE_CODE_DISABLE_FAST_MODE is not set
  • No managed settings file exists at /Library/Application Support/ClaudeCode/managed-settings.json

Debug Log

The message appears hundreds of times per session:

2026-03-17T07:06:14.017Z [DEBUG] Fast mode unavailable: Fast mode has been disabled by your organization
2026-03-17T07:06:14.017Z [DEBUG] Fast mode unavailable: Fast mode has been disabled by your organization
2026-03-17T07:06:14.021Z [DEBUG] Fast mode unavailable: Fast mode has been disabled by your organization
