What's Wrong?

OAuth login fails with a 500 Internal Server Error on the authorization page. The browser opens the Claude authorization page, but after clicking Authorize, the page returns a 500 error and Claude Code never completes the login flow.

Environment

  • Claude Code version: 2.1.92
  • Platform: Windows (PowerShell)
  • Plan: Claude Max
  • Terminal: PowerShell

What I've Tried

  • Updated to latest version (2.1.92)
  • Deleted %LOCALAPPDATA%\Claude
  • Deleted %LOCALAPPDATA%\claude-cli-nodejs
  • Deleted ~\.claude.json and ~\.claude\
  • Retried multiple times across different PowerShell sessions
  • Maximized terminal window to avoid token line-wrapping
  • Manually copying the OAuth URL and pasting into browser

None of the above resolved the issue. The 500 error persists on every attempt.

What Should Happen?

Successful OAuth authentication and access to Claude Code using my Claude Max subscription.
