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_MODEis 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:
