Does anyone know if this will impact ACP invoking Claude? IE using Claude from zed. I assume not but looking for confirmation

It would unfortunately impact it. ACP uses Claude SDK and is developed by a third-party.

This sucks. I use Claude -p over tailscale to code over voice when I’m on the go for accessibility reasons, and most of the time I do the same while at the computer. Running through $200 in API pricing takes no time. Oh well, time to switch providers I guess.

Guess we're no short of reasons to stick to Codex.

I think that this is much better than the previous situation with total lack of clarity on what is allowed and what isn't.

I use `claude -p` interactively -- I understand why they put it under this new umbrella, but having to open the fullscreen interface each time to not be counted as a programmatic tool is a little disappointing.

The anthropic enshittification continues.

Can someone explain in plain English please.

Currently, if you use claude -p (non interactive mode) in for example CI/CD, you can use your included subscription tokens.

They are now changing it to be:

You get $20/$100/$200 of "credit" that can be used for claude -p. Problem is, once you are out of that it is the normal API rates (outrageously expensive).
