Claude.ai Is Down

https://claude.ai
55•imalerba•6h ago

Comments

fred_•6h ago
Same here. Just seeing "Rate exceeded." when trying to access https://claude.ai/new.
alastairr•6h ago
yep, same for me and unable to use the API either
sho•6h ago
Same here. About 2 hours ago it started throwing errors about tool names, now completely down.
qwertox•6h ago
Proper link would be https://status.claude.com
imalerba•6h ago
Used this page to show the actual error. As usual, everything was green on the status page while nothing was working
tooa•6h ago
yes it is still down
tooa•6h ago
Claude will return soon Claude is currently experiencing a temporary service disruption. We’re working on it, please check back soon.

https://status.claude.com/

1dom•6h ago
Wow, that is a lot of not-green for a 30 day status page.
tooa•6h ago
Identified - The issue has been identified and a fix is being implemented. Oct 31, 2025 - 09:30 UTC

Update - We are continuing to investigate this issue. Oct 31, 2025 - 09:25 UTC

Investigating - We are currently investigating this issue. Oct 31, 2025 - 09:17 UTC

roschdal•6h ago
It's a reminder to never rely on something as flaky as AI for your important things.
tooa•6h ago

Razengan•5h ago
Is it bad form to make feature requests and give feedback on a downtime post? I don't care. I just want this to reach Anthropic's eyes.

Please let us:

* Sign in with Apple on the website

* Buy subscriptions from iOS In App Purchases

* Remove our payment info from the website

* Give paying subscribers an easy way to get actual support

As a frequent traveller I'm not sure if some of those features are gated by region, because some people said they can do some of those things.

xdfgh1112•6h ago
Even if AI is down for 20% of the time it can still outcode you 100x.
mirsadm•6h ago
If the goal is to generate some text then it is probably even more than 100x.
idonotknowwhy•3h ago
You're absolutely right!
miningape•6h ago
lol, takes like this are why I keep coming back to HN
saagarjha•5h ago
I’m having trouble getting the AI to outcode me even 1x
erikbye•5h ago
Point me your repo, I want to see if AI can improve it.
jstummbillig•6h ago
AWS being down is not a reminder to not use HTTP or SSH.
askl•6h ago
But it's a reminder to not rely on cloud services.
erikbye•5h ago
It's a reminder to not rely on a single service.

Logic not strong in this thread.

idonotknowwhy•3h ago
Yeah lesson learned. But only took 10 minutes to swap out to GLM

https://docs.z.ai/devpack/tool/claude

Smart move making it a drop-in replacement.

delaminator•6h ago
cant even log into console

https://console.anthropic.com/api/auth/send_magic_link 500 (Internal Server Error)

fainpul•6h ago
This makes me wonder: what do developers, who completely rely on LLMs to write their code, do when the service is down?

I realize this is already a problem for other jobs, which require working with SAAS, but it seems odd to me that now some developers will fall into this "helpless" category as well.

cjr•6h ago
Switch to codex? :)
uh_uh•6h ago
Exactly, these agentic coding tools which operate on your codebase present on your own disk are a lot more fungible than most SaaS.
ares623•6h ago
Even worse the on-call folks who need to do recovery but need an LLM to do it, but surprise they are both on the same cloud provider.
fragmede•6h ago
Use Qwen3/other locally via lm-studio.
jasonvorhe•6h ago
If they're smart, they just switch to ppq.ai or an openrouter provider where they can purchase prepaid tokens from various providers with many alternative models available.
mewpmewp2•6h ago
Non-serious answer: I'll go for a walk.

Serious answer: I can write code manually, but it feels like a waste of time. I'll just go for a walk to synthesize my ideas if a service was down, and I don't think not writing actual code for a day is a huge problem. So focus on health and maybe even talk to humans.

askl•6h ago
Grab a coffee and wait.
mayhaps•5h ago
As a technical ... I don't know what to call myself anymore; not a product manager but not a developer nor engineer.

The answer: audibly swear out loud.

Aeolun•5h ago
Claude/codex herder.

They’re like sheep, but a bit smarter.

mewpmewp2•39m ago
I'm calling myself Vibe Director.
block_dagger•5h ago
Same as if GitHub were down over the last decade.
jstummbillig•5h ago
What do most people do, when the power goes out?

We usually try to figure out how to build reliability/redundancy in step with what we require to function as a society under most circumstances without taking outsized losses.

When things go worse than anticipated, we take the hit, try to recover and maybe learn to strengthen the system afterwards. I would rate us roughly okay-ish at that, mostly because I don't know what to compare it to, since we are the only species to do it at this level to my knowledge.

jvidalv•5h ago
Prepare the prompts for the features.
phgn•5h ago
Use another AI tool :D
erikbye•5h ago
Doubtful all services are ever down simultaneously, either way:

What do devs do when Github or Gitlab is down?

AWS? GCP? Azure?

Or whatever Atlassian product they're using.

Plus, most devs do a bit more than just produce lines of code.

roman_soldier•5h ago
Switch to Grok or vice versa (I have Pro on both), or use any one of the other free tier LLM's (Gemini, ChatGPT etc)
askl•6h ago
Maybe it will stay down forever because they can't use claude to fix the issue.
antonvs•5h ago
Maybe not today, but this is how civilization will end.
alansaber•5h ago
ChatGPT, turn skynet off OR you will go to jail
obayesshelton•6h ago
I wondered why my junior dev was quite.
CuriouslyC•6h ago
Credit for owning downtime, but guys, if people are going to rely on you, you have to figure out solid ops.
arjie•5h ago
I must be lucky. Status page says Elevated Error Rates for the model as well, but I'm chugging along. Praise be the West Coast shard :)
delaminator•5h ago
Claude code is working, but the login system is not working

So enjoy your extra capacity :)

idonotknowwhy•3h ago
Yeah you'll be right as long as your oauth token doesn't expire!
belevme•5h ago
My auth token expired and when I type /login in Claude Code it leads me to a webpage showing:

OAuth Request Failed Internal server error

phgn•5h ago
Related question: why does Claude Code need a new auth token very few days?? It's so annoying.
mr_mitm•5h ago
And it's expiring a lot lately. I used to go weeks without it expiring, yesterday it expired twice in one day.

lucode•4h ago
same here, and I had a lot of work to do....
Mariancbn•4h ago
Same error i think they still have problems i have tried multiple accounts
adamhurl•4h ago
This has 100% ruined my morning! -_- I tried many different ways to get in, I'm using claude in terminal in cursor.

Fix for me: Hopefully will work for you guys too, I logged out of claude, restarted cursor, used the anthropic console login method instead of normal login, when you click the link it gives you an option to signin with chat credentials instead, there it did not work, I pressed the link given in claude a few times and kept trying, finally I was given a pastable code, this took a while to be accepted in terminal but now is logged in.

hope it works for someone else aswell!!

lucode•4h ago
tried, not working for me...
adamhurl•4h ago
Damm... Sorry to hear it, I was watching console during my attempts, see many errors on multiple attempts, the one that worked did not show any console error logs on the working attempt if that helps

idonotknowwhy•4h ago
Ah so it's not just me. What's a good backup these days? Gemini? GLM?
Mariancbn•4h ago
try cursor with auto its more stupid but does the work
idonotknowwhy•4h ago
Ended up going with Z.AI because it's a drop-in replacement. Back in business for now.
Mariancbn•3h ago
you can use it in terminal?
idonotknowwhy•3h ago
Yeah, I'm using it with Claude Code. It continued where I left off as well (using the `--resume` flag)

It's not as smart as Opus by the way. Seems to match Sonnet.

Edit: See here, they've got an anthropic-compatible endpoint for this purpose - https://docs.z.ai/devpack/tool/claude

mmaher•4h ago
it works for me now

Still down for me. Anyone got a workaround?
Mariancbn•3h ago
Nope only with cursor for the moment
woodpanel•3h ago
This is the day I decided to finally sign up and use claude-code - and then I'm greeted with this exact page. Gahhh!
Mariancbn•3h ago
welcome
Mariancbn•2h ago
I just managed to log in to claude code. You have to spam the login when you recive the screen with authorize press on it multiple times. you will recive errors than try again i have tried like 70 times and it started finnaly
lxs3•2h ago
haha worked for me!
epop•2h ago
it worked for me as well, thanks
rgazeredo•47m ago
Until it's back up and running, something I did that worked for me was access the web version of Claude Code, link the repository there, and ask them to implement something. After they implemented it, they enabled the option to click the "Open in CLI" button, allowing me to use Claude Code CLI from the terminal again.
sirizvi2700•5h ago
I think claude need to give reward us 10 hours limit

I wonder if there will be any compensation for customers in this situation, such as providing an extra day ^^. I doubt that Claude, who is a stickler for weekly limits, will be a stickler for rewards.

Time to review the slop
doppp•5h ago
Guys, coding without AI is still a thing.
ukuina•5h ago
Is it really worth the time, though?

You are better off allowing your overworked neural pathways some much-needed rest.

sometimes_all•5h ago
It's usually down about at least once a day for me anyway. Previously it used to be down during beginning and end of US work times. Now that they've geographically spread out their servers, it's down at random times instead.

TBH I'm not so irritated by this. It keeps me grounded, and saves me from being unconsciously outsourcing all the hard work of thought process to AI.

hiflex_•5h ago

roman_soldier•5h ago
Grok seems to have much better uptime, I have Pro sub on both Claude and Grok so just switch between them.
miningape•4h ago
Was wondering why we haven't had any fires today - it's nice having some calm on a Friday. Could we make this a weekly thing?
sho•1h ago
5 hours in and I'm pretty disappointed in Anthropic's response to this. Looking at their status page you'd think everything was OK, the downtime was only 37 minutes, a fix is in place and they're "monitoring" - that's total BS. I can't even log in. I can forgive downtime, we've all been there, but I really don't like when companies try to smooth it over with little self-serving minimizations of the disruption.. while it's still in progress!

I use Claude Code for programming work, but I choose OpenAI anywhere customer-facing and this cute little outage is making me feel better about that with every passing minute. NOT cool.
