[BUG] "Your account does not have access to Claude Code" despite active Pro subscription and successful login

Preflight Checklist

• [x] I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
• [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
• [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

After successful OAuth login, Claude Code shows "Your account does not have access to Claude Code. Please run /login." on every message attempt.

/status confirms everything is correct:

• Login method: Claude Pro Account
• Email: correct (matches active Pro subscription on claude.ai)
• Model: Default Sonnet 4.6

The subscription is active and works normally on claude.ai (web). Only Claude Code CLI denies access.

What Should Happen?

Claude Code should allow sending messages and working normally after successful login with an active Pro subscription.

3. Run /login, authenticate via browser — login succeeds
4. /status shows "Login method: Claude Pro Account" — all correct
5. Try to send any message → "Your account does not have access to Claude Code. Please run /login."
