[BUG] CLI completely blocked by "out of extra usage" error despite Max 20x plan at only 10% usage
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.
