Does this mean it's fine to use Claude subscriptions with third party harnesses?

2•jakemanger•38m ago
I've been curious about using a claude subscription with OpenCode, Pi and some other third party harnesses.

If you remember, there was a lot of chatter about a ban on third party harnesses and then Claude have had some pretty confusing messaging about it since.

I thought I should read the information they have on it and came across this page on their support site:

"Update June 15: We're pausing the changes to Claude Agent SDK usage described below. For now, nothing has changed: Claude Agent SDK, claude -p, and third-party app usage still draw from your subscription's usage limits. The previously announced monthly credit, which would have been available to eligible claimants in connection with these changes, isn't available. We’re working to update the plan to better support how users build with Claude subscriptions. When we have an update, we'll share it before anything takes effect."

https://support.claude.com/en/articles/15036540-use-the-claude-agent-sdk-with-your-claude-plan

Is it right that it is currently fine to use your claude subscription with opencode, pi, openclaw or any third party harness?

If so, why is it still not enabled by default (or been removed) on all of these agent harnesses I just mentioned?

I think its a tool they use to shut down things they dont like. But they dont seem to care much about opensource projects that mind their own buissnes.
