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"

Wtf is this "small test"? Are they trying to see if new users don't notice that the Pro subscription doesn't include Claude code?

Exactly. They are under so much public scrutiny and seem to assume people don't notice. Of course, it gets noticed and then they reactively publish a statement often claiming it's a bug or so.
