[BUG] I am getting out of usage error but already have tokens and limits API Error: 400 - Invalid Request You're out of extra usage. Add more usage credits at: https://claude.ai/settings/usage Then retry your request

What's Wrong?

Claude Code CLI throws a 400 API error with message "You're out of extra usage" even when the user has sufficient Claude.ai Pro plan credits and has not exceeded any usage limits. The error occurs mid-session without warning.
Error received:
API Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error","message":"You're out of extra usage. Add more at claude.ai/settings/usage and keep going."},"request_id":"req_011CZqkDa5AAhEqhqrP8xE8s"}

What Should Happen?

Claude Code CLI should continue working normally as long as the user is within their Pro plan limits. If usage is genuinely exhausted, the error message should clearly distinguish between:

Claude.ai chat usage
Claude Code CLI usage

And should not show this error when the user still has available credits/quota. Previously, Claude Code worked without hitting this error under the same usage conditions.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Have an active Claude.ai Pro subscription
2. Open terminal and run Claude Code CLI (claude)
3. Start a coding task or conversation
4. After some usage, the following error appears without warning:

API Error: 400 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"invalid_request_error",
"message":"You're out of extra usage. Add more at claude.ai/settings/usage
and keep going."},"request_id":"req_011CZqkDa5AAhEqhqrP8xE8s"}

1. Checking claude.ai/settings/usage shows:

• Weekly limit: only 15% used
• Session usage: only 2% used
• Extra usage: $0.00 spent
• Balance available: $36.07

Additional Information

• Error occurs even though usage dashboard shows plenty of remaining quota
• Extra Usage toggle is OFF — error should not appear when limits aren't hit
• This behavior was not present in earlier versions
• The error message is misleading — it suggests buying more credits

even when the user has $36.07 balance and low usage

• Claude.ai chat interface works fine; issue is specific to Claude Code CLI
