[BUG] Max 20x plan: 100% usage after 2 hours of light work (5 commits, no agents)
## Description Max 20x plan ($200/mo), hit 100% usage after approximately 2 hours today (April 1, 2026). This has never happened before with comparable workloads. ## What I did - 5 small commits (security tests, doc updates, test fixes) - No subagents, no Agent tool usage - Normal sequential workflow: read → edit → test → commit - Model: Opus 4.6 (1M context) ## Expected behavior 2 hours of light work should not exhaust the 5-hour Max 20x window. Previously, similar sessions used maybe 20-30% of the budget. ## Environment - Claude Code CLI on Linux - Max 20x plan - Model: claude-opus-4-6 (1M context) ## Related issues This appears to be the same underlying problem reported since ~March 23: - #38335 - #38357 - #37394 - #40903 Something changed server-side in quota calculation around that date. The budget is being decremented far faster than actual token usage would justify.
