PSA: If you've been running out of Claude session quotas on Max tier, you're not alone. Read this.
Some insane Redditor reverse engineered the Claude binaries with MITM to find 2 bugs that could have caused cache-invalidation. Tokens that aren't cached are 10x-20x more expensive and are killing your quota.
If you're using your API keys with Claude this is even worse. This is also likely why this isn't uniform, while over 500 folks replied to me and said "me too", many (including me) didn't see this issue.
There are 2 issues that are compounded here (per Redditor, I haven't independently confirmed this) :
1s bug he found is a string replacement bug in bun that invalidates cache. Apparently this has to do with the custom @bunjavascript binary that ships with standalone Claude CLI.
The workaround there is to use Claude with `npx @anthropic-ai/claude-code`
2nd bug is worse, he claims that --resume always breaks cache. And there doesn't seem to be a workaround there, except pinning to a very old version (that will miss on tons of features)
This bug is also documented on Github and confirmed by other folks.
I won't entertain the conspiracy theories there that Anthropic "chooses" to ignore these bugs because it gets them more $$$, they are actively benefiting from everyone hitting as much cached tokens as possible, so this is absolutely a great find and it does align with my thoughts earlier.
The very sudden spike in reporting for this, the non-uniform nature (some folks are completely fine, some folks are hitting quotas after saying "hey") definitely points to a bug.
cc @trq212 @bcherny @_catwu for visibility in case this helps all of us.

My feed is showing me a bunch of folks who tapped out their whole usage limits on Mon/Tue. Is this your experience? Please comment, I want to understand how widespread this is

@MattP1Gallagher Franco’s driving exposed the danger of the new regs. Something needs to changes. Fast.

Almost signed up for ElevenLabs to narrate my blog. $330/month.
Then I tried running an open-source model on my own laptop. Qwen 3.5 14B.
Sounds fine. 200 posts a month. Costs me electricity.
I almost paid $4,000 a year to rent a model I can run myself.
Most AI subscriptions right now are just a nice UI on top of something free.

great models. honestly great people who work there. but their pr strategy should be studied.
