What's Wrong?

One day, when I was starting up Claude, on the startup grid with your tokens, messages with the windows app, I saw that my tokens on there were 358 BILLION! I obviously do not think I even had this many, I literally had under 1 billion yesterday.

What Should Happen?

My visible tokenns used should not spike
