I just had to upgrade my plan because I ran out of tokens because medium effort had dementia and things only worked on high. Good to know I'm getting my money's worth...
While your developers are twiddling their thumbs waiting for Claude to come back online, your competitor is using alternatives to get work done right now and advancing on their go to market timeline.
Funny that I just saw this after have "Console temporarily unavailable". I am currently at the stage that: 1) I think Claude Code is very impressive 2) I think pretty much everything else about them is terrible.
* Support really poor, raised a ticket last week and have heard nothing back at all
* Separation of claude.ai accounts and console accounts is super confusing
* Couldn't log into the platform since I had an old org in the process of deletion even though I was invited to a new one (had to wait 7 days!)
* Payments for more API credits were broken for about a week
* Claude chat has really gone to s*t unless it always was. Just getting back terrible answers to simple questions.
* The desktop app is a web app pretending to be a desktop app that doesn't always know it is a desktop app so you get things like, "this will only work in the desktop app". Yes I know, this is the desktop app! "Oh sorry about that but you need to use the desktop app".
* mcp integration and debugging is dreadful, just a combination of generic "an error ocurred" and sometimes nothing at all
* MCP only supports OAuth for shared connectors but auth key doesn't work even with "local" servers that are not necessarily local, just the config is local.
It's apparently not even possible to get a tax exemption if you work at a place exempt from state taxes. Some institutions are sticklers about this and will refuse to allow payments.
Cross your fingers they're about to drop 4.7. 4.6 came out with a bang, now it seems all the compute bottlenecks just lead to customer frustration as they get closer to releasing next model. Balancing the books over there must be a nightmare, "Well we can piss off every single customer for a week, but we'll be able to release the next model 1 week faster"
Have anyone found good techniques to get a session out of Claude Code, so that I can point another tool at it and pick up there?
This always seems to happen at the worst possible time, after having spent an hour getting deep into something – half finished edits across files, subagents running, etc.
If you use superpowers and "brainstorm" in your prompt, you will get a spec document that other AI can use. They can figure out what was done and continue from there.
But I thought coding was solved? I guess having a single 9 of availability is something we need true AGI for, we should probably give OpenAI and Anthropic another gazillion dollars to burn through to figure this out!
It's weird to me to see people absolutely freaking out about Claude being down, or less powerful, or whatever. We went from zero to relying on it to do even the most basic functions so quickly.

You can put those on the health status!
Early twitter showed the fail whale as often as it showed tweets and yet it was an unstoppable juggernaut that people kept using.
