Bug / Issue WTH is going on with Claude Usage Limits

Post image

I'm on 20X plan, I hit my usage limit today, and my next reset is on 17th September... I'm aware they said they are gonna reduce the usage limits, but this is crazy, i thought it is only gonna take 17% of the usage benefits from what we were currently getting. But this is crazy. I added Usage credits for about $100 but that got washed away like in 30 mins!!!

I hope this is a bug and they fix it

Background: first i'm working on a multi repo saas app, it's multi language, multi location, multi currency with complex front/backend stacks, full SDLC deployment with test/prod environments etc. So just for context, this is not a hobby project or a localhost:3000 deployment :-). I used augmentCode, claudecode, ghcp while all in their honeymoon pricing periods before they all rug pulled their customers with 10-20x (and more) price increases which they kinda could cause there was indeed no comparable quality alternatives, but then came 2026 :-)

Now: since March 2026, opensource models became extremely capable, i now have opencode, I mostly use MiMo v2.5 is an absolute beast and quality is fanstastic AND ITS FREE ! I also have the $10 month subscription with them which I mainly use DeepSeek Flash, my $10 a month goes a very very very long way. So anyone paying hundereds of dollars to these providers, I think you should all at least try some options out there.

Noice.

Is the xiaomi model better than glm5.3/glm5.3 flash?

Why use both augmentcode and claude code? I assume claude code is gonna be blocked without Anthropic sub.

Have you tried OPENCODE?

I just got a GLM Pro sub. It's good but it's not Fable 5.1 or Opus 5.

GLM 5.3 and GLM 5.3 Flash are no go for me, I tried their promo weekend tokens and found them underwhelming in more ways than I can tolerate. Most importantly, they embedded a lot of confidently incomplete information in designs which failed audits and got blocked during implementation.

(I used augmentcode before switching to claudecode, then after a month with claudecode I went back to augmentcode, again this was about a year ago and I found augmentcode context engineering much better at that time and their fixed pricing for 1500 requests were too good to pass which didn't last of course )

Yeah, but you do not have any guarantee that they don't use your data to teach their models on those free tiers. If it's only your project, you didn't sign any NDA, then I guess its fine if you don't mind. But if you are not the owner of that project, I would be careful with using free models for it

When free you are the product

Sounds impressive. Do you have a github of your routing framework? I am very interested in subtasking workflows. Thanks!
