Anthropic just burned so much trust...

Summary

Anthropic has begun restricting Claude Code plan API usage to only its own Claude Code service, preventing third-party applications like Open Code and Cladbot from leveraging the plan's generous token limits. This move appears to be a response to developers extensively using the $100 and $200 monthly plans, which offer significantly more usage than standard API pricing. The speaker views this as a potentially damaging decision that could erode developer trust in Anthropic and lead to higher costs for users who rely on these third-party services. Ultimately, the restriction represents a strategic shift by Anthropic to control and limit how its API plans are being utilized across different platforms.
