They 've already banned OpenCode so this looks just a continuation of their policy.

This company (Anthropic) is not your friend.

Welcome to the end of subsidized pricing. Per token pricing is where everything is headed.

The hope is that we get more usage based pricing across SaaS, DocuSign is a great example.

They mentioned before that they'd discontinue using your subscription in third party harness, as they are obviously subsiding your usage.

You can always pay for Anthropic models through the API usage. That still works... but I wonder if anybody will want to pay that much.

You'd probably go with a different model or API provider if you have to pay those costs yourself.

so? use Gemini, GLM, Kimi, DeepSeek, MiniMax, etc, tons of options out there ...
