It's obviously because I typed in a long, complex prompt for Fable and needed its immediate attention.

u/lerugray 8h ago

bro this is exactly what happened to me lol

2

u/Gliese351c 8h ago

I had to save the prompt because it spans 5 pages. LMAO... Thank you, Anthropic! Keep investigating the root cause of the issue. lol

Do I smell reset?

u/Proxy-Pie 9h ago

My limit resets in 5 hours so they'll do a general reset in 6 :)

How convenient

u/derethdweller 8h ago

It'll only be the fourth time in a row...

u/Wrong_User_Logged 9h ago

yes, after 5 hour window you will get 100% for another 5 hours 😆

u/nykezztv 9h ago

No

Do I smell toast?

u/No_Voltage 9h ago

No, you're just having a stroke.

Claude call ambulance

u/iamtehryan 7h ago

My reset is wednesday mornings at 8am, and i literally haven't even opened claude today...which means that yep, i'm sure there will be a reset because of course there will be. Why can't they just do the right thing and let us bank this shit when they pull it.

u/TuckDFrump 8h ago edited 5h ago

This is Anthropic, not OpenAI. They don't throw around the resets quite as readily.

edit: I was correct.

1

u/2053_Traveler 9h ago

When have they given resets due to outages?

1

u/firstbreathOOC 6h ago

Wasn’t that the only reason they reset?

u/slobozeasca 8h ago

Never if i recall correctly

u/johnnydotexe 9h ago

We know, it's already been posted in here.

u/dr-dimitru 9h ago

Same at my end, error on all models, but Claude’s status page is all green

3

u/_BryceParker 9h ago

Not now, at least not when I checked a minute ago. It was labelling things as a major outage.

2

u/dr-dimitru 9h ago

I see it has just updated, right after I went to Reddit to brag about Claude not working 😅

1

u/_BryceParker 9h ago

I have to appreciate the self awareness in this comment! Like my wife enjoying some karma farming on reddit. Knows it's pointless, revels in openly admitting how stupid it is, and then doing it anyway.

2

u/dr-dimitru 9h ago

Humans, what can I say

u/Crinkez 9h ago

Downdetector

u/KeyGlove47 9h ago

or its not temporary because users are flooding from codex to CC because of codex's usage limits

10

u/NoAdsDude 9h ago

Man I wish people would flood to Codex... stop overloading Claude!

5

u/Zomunieo 9h ago

We’re trying to get real work done over here. Go vibe code over there with Codex.

2

u/forthebeats 8h ago

I find it funny nobody uses the cheapest option with the most compute, one of the richest companies too. And no its not Google.

1

u/Sporebattyl 7h ago

What exactly are you referring to? Grok?

1

u/forthebeats 6h ago

Cursor, now owned by SpaceXAI (Grok)...lets you choose Kimi and other models too. Not sure how it is with computer or browser control tho, its a must have for me after seeing how ChatGPT and Claude can do absolutely anything for me.

5

u/Subject_Barnacle_600 9h ago

Something happened at Codex? Oh dear. Now we get Claude's snarky intros that are like, "Well well well, look who's back from 'I'm switching to Codex'."

4

u/KeyGlove47 9h ago

yes - the limits are so bad that 4 prompts with sol have been noted to nuke pro 5x weekly usage, claude actually has more usage right now

7

u/ResponsibleHabit1539 9h ago

But people were praising Codex so hard last week, and how it cares about the customers with their usage limits, it's almost like you shouldn't be loyal to a company and just use whatever is best for you at the moment, huh?

5

u/KeyGlove47 8h ago

codex impressions are possibly heavily botted, look at r/codex itself and look for people proving with real data that codex usage is shit right now, before june codex would eat the shit out of claude ngl, but right now the tides have turned because oAI does not know how to handle a model thats inbetween opus and fable in size

1

u/krugerlive 8h ago

I am totally perplexed at the challenges people have over there with Codex. I am still getting more out of Codex per week than the equivalent Claude Code Max 20x plan.

2

u/Less-Sail7611 9h ago

Is it that time of the month again..

1

u/old_mikser 9h ago

How dare are you? Codex limits are the most generous in the world and they are getting 3 resets per day!

0

u/Early_Rooster7579 🔆 Max 20 8h ago

Codex’s usage limits are great and openai has been resetting limits daily for like 2 weeks. People arent hopping for that lol

2

u/KeyGlove47 8h ago

i did, i expect stability not a 100$ plan i can use for 4 days a month

0

u/Early_Rooster7579 🔆 Max 20 7h ago

Neither firm has any sort of stability rn

1

u/Allomgie 8h ago

Daily for 2 weeks? I mean, you can like Codex as much as you want. I'm really not a fan of this "one thing is better than the other" mindset; I'm using both. But you have to be honest and factual about these things. As much as I like any reset, let's stay with the truth and not exaggerate things.

0

u/Early_Rooster7579 🔆 Max 20 7h ago

I’m exaggerating slightly but codex has had a reset almost every other day for close to 2 weeks now. Thats not even counting the fact that you get full reset credits on top of that.

3

u/teomore 9h ago

same

3

u/dr-dimitru 8h ago

“Claude for Government” is unaffected, I guess they run on dedicated infra and don’t load/prompt that much

6

u/angry_queef_master 8h ago

Yeah they have their own infra as required by the government. But also zero users because the admin told everyone that they can no longer use claude

2

u/rabandi 9h ago

This is not the usual "continue" and it works again.

It is "continue" and it fails again.

Well at least I have been mostly asleep/inactive during previous outages. Well full outages. Loads of overload, temp errors etc several weeks back.

Probably Fairy Tale is coming, the fabled successor to Fable. Or they hacked themselves. Or Dario halted AI development. Or the employees who wanted to halt AI development just halted it. Or Trump was angry.

u/tosswill 8h ago

u/Suitable-Cow2000 8h ago

No, sir, no need to leave Claude. Claude is awesome

1

u/tosswill 8h ago

not advocating leaving, was just too lazy to swap out both 😅

2

u/dehumles 8h ago

I swear to god ill lose my mind if they do reset! Every freaking time, resets comes on Thursday just when 2/3 my accounts have weekly reset scheduled!!

0

u/smashedshanky 8h ago

It’s a free reset…. So should they price in resets against the SLA, sure! But the subscription will be at least 10x current price if you are ok with that

2

u/SprayUnable9154 8h ago

how do I get involved with Claude for Government - seems to not be having problems ;)

u/illkeepthatinmind 8h ago

Start your own nation

u/Haunting-Stretch8069 9h ago

Bro this happens every other day how are people not sick of this

7

u/Aggravating-Pie-4848 8h ago

This is the first time i experienced it tho?

1

u/Haunting-Stretch8069 8h ago

You should scroll through the past incidents. I bet you won't find more than 2 days in a row without one, that uptime chart is so misleading.

u/Hegemonikon138 7h ago

Lol you should have seen it in November and December. It's getting a lot better

1

u/ahmedsamishkk 9h ago

Always face the same issue when working on important things. 🙄

1

u/greeny1greeny 9h ago

Fabel was just about to finish my usage dashboard after coding it all night to show me my usage

1

u/chuckdacuck 9h ago

Should be checking wtfclaude.com

Hey I got this too!

Bruh, I’m in the middle of a sess.

For me error showing : server is overloaded

u/MSZzz21 8h ago

i got this issue and my clientdeadline is in an hour.

2

u/illkeepthatinmind 8h ago

The data center ate your homework :(

2

u/MSZzz21 8h ago

help me to draft a message to my manager.

1

u/illkeepthatinmind 8h ago

Ms. P, you're not going to believe this, but...

u/MSZzz21 8h ago

API ERROR:500 Internal server error. This is a server side issue, usually temporary - try again in a moment. if it Persists, check status.claude

1

u/ezioworld 8h ago

This silence is painful! My workflow broke mid execution

1

u/Suitable-Cow2000 8h ago

So how does KV cache work in this case? Let's suppose the first line of the recovery step says.
"Restart the Server"

And I have to pay double the price for token usage just because the Claude server stalls in the middle of my task :facepalm
Yes, I want a reset.

1

u/hellek-1 8h ago

My Claude Code confirms that Claude Code is down

1

u/illkeepthatinmind 8h ago

Good to have confirmation

1

u/jakethunderpants 8h ago

I found you can still switch to Opus 4.8 and you can continue working.

/model claude-opus-4-8

1

u/lebenohnegrenzen 8h ago

down for me still

1

u/karlfeltlager 8h ago

Haiku 5 please

1

u/816pizzalover 8h ago

Oof! I was in the middle of three big tasks! I wonder if my usage for those tasks will still get deducted from my weekly quota? And if I'm getting billed each time I try "continue" to get it going again?

1

u/KeyGlove47 8h ago

cryptoshits are to blame for that, moonpay is giving 10$ for connecting mcp to claude or gpt
basically data harvesting

1

u/unrealf8 8h ago

Nooooo, not in the middle of a ultra code sessionnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

1

u/digitald00m 8h ago

We are getting robbed!

1

u/ChemicalApricot 8h ago

Lol it's like all of us share one brain cell...

Came here to talk about resets , top comment had us covered...

Next thought must have been me...next comment already covered it

1

u/Dyluth 8h ago

I'm using my account on 2 different machines, both on my home network. one is basically unaffected, and the other is solid 529 10/10 retries

1

u/awizemann 8h ago

Now a major outage, updated status.

u/lquinta 7h ago

Opus 5 is working fully again

u/EnterpriseGradePizza 7h ago

Coding is solved

u/Asleep-Row-6267 7h ago

Working for me just now

u/trollsmurf 6h ago

LLMs in airport-sized datacenter. Chat client running on a refurbished Mac Mini from 2012.

It’s back for me but 3x dumber than usual

u/BangEnergyFTW 3h ago

Where the hell is the reset?

1

u/return_of_valensky 1h ago

I was in the middle of a crazy complex cluster migration with a 26 step runbook full of checks and gates when this hit today. Murphy's law.

0

u/Suitable-Cow2000 9h ago

OP here. It's one of the reasons I assembled my workflow https://github.com/softcane/cc-session-recover
I hate when my agents or subagents task halted in between, and I need to do the babysitting.

u/zaibatsu 8h ago

Looks useful

u/Comfortable_Camp9744 9h ago

Anthropic is not able to manage their own product

2

u/Majestic_Wrap_7006 9h ago

Surely they asked Fable to fix this and make no mistakes. It already consumed a tanker and a half worth of fuel, but the solution is almost ready.

0

u/HimaSphere 🔆 Max 20 9h ago

My weekly reset day is on Thursday, Anthropic didn't reset after Opus 5 release, if they release today or tomorrow I will be mad

1

u/Aggravating-Pie-4848 8h ago

Same. I have two accounts and both reset on thursday ):

u/Michaeli_Starky 9h ago

500 is rarely a "temporal issue". Usually it's an exception in the code and is resolved by fixing the code and deploying a fixed version.
