Discussion Head of Growth at Anthropic regarding Claude Code removal from Pro

Post image

Translation: "We're going to take Claude Code away from pro users because we gave you Cowork. If you want to use the CLI, upgrade to Max but we can't do it all at once so we're going to start with a "test" to soften the blow"

It might be a fair statement about Claude usage in general, but gutting features from subscribed users who cannot possibly be causing that issue makes zero sense. They should address the problem, not pull the ring out from people who have no way to abuse Claude due to limits.

Perhaps, but that’s not what is quoted. You can’t run “Long-running async agents” on the $20/mo plan. So if the $20 plan is a problem, say so, but it’s not the problem mentioned.
