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?

What's Wrong:

Plan: Claude Max 20x ($200/month)
Claude Code version: v2.0.76
OS: macOS
Current session usage: 10%, Extra Usage balance: $0.00
Every CLI command (including claude --version, claude logout, claude config) returns API Error: 400 "You're out of extra usage"
CLI is completely unusable despite plan limits not being reached

Steps to reproduce:

Have Max 20x plan with Extra Usage balance at $0.00
Run any claude command
Get "You're out of extra usage" error regardless of actual plan usage

What Should Happen?

CLI should use plan quota (currently 10% used), not require Extra Usage credits. Web interface works normally with the same account.

Error Messages/Logs

API Error: 400

Steps to Reproduce

Have Claude Max 20x plan with Extra Usage balance at $0.00
Run any claude command (claude, claude --version, claude logout, claude config)
Every command returns "out of extra usage" error
Web interface (claude.ai) works normally with same account

Had the exact same issue — Max 20x plan, plenty of remaining limits (47% weekly, 29% session), but every Claude Code command returned the "out of extra usage" error. Tried all models (Opus, Sonnet, Haiku), logout/login — nothing worked.

Root cause: Outdated Claude Code version. I was on v2.1.29, you're on v2.0.76. The old versions appear to route all API requests through extra usage billing instead of the Max plan quota.

Fix:

npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code@latest did NOT update the version for me. What worked was a fresh install via the official script:

curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash

This upgraded me to v2.1.96. Logged in again with claude login and everything works immediately. Give it a try — your v2.0.76 is likely the problem.

This is likely your issue. I had the same problem on v2.1.29 — old versions route API requests through extra usage billing instead of your Max plan quota.

npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code@latest might not update it properly. Try a fresh install:

curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash

Then claude login again. This fixed it for me — upgraded to v2.1.96 and it worked immediately.
