Hi everyone! Boris from the Claude Code team here. @eschluntz, @catherinewu, @wolffiex, @bdr and I will be around for the next hour or so and we'll do our best to answer your questions about the product.

The biggest complaint I (and several others) have is that we continuously hit the limit via the UI after even just a few intensive queries. Of course, we can use the console API, but then we lose ability to have things like Projects, etc.

Do you foresee these limitations increasing anytime soon?

Quick Edit: Just wanted to also say thank you for all your hard work, Claude has been phenomenal.

this is also my problem, ive only used the UI with $20 subscription, can I use the same subscription to use the cli? I'm afraid its like those aws api billing where there is no limit to how much I can use then get a surprise bill

It is API billing like AWS - you pay for what you use. Every time you exit a session we print the cost, and in the middle of a session you can do /cost to see your cost so far that session!

You can track costs in a few ways and set spend limits to avoid surprises: https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/claude-c...

What I really want (as a current Pro subscriber) is a subscription tier ("Ultimate" at ~$120/month ?) that gives me priority access to the usual chat interface, but _also_ a bunch of API credits that would ensure Claude and I can code together for most of the average working month (reasonable estimate would be 4 hours a day, 15 days a month).

i.e I'd like my chat and API usage to be all included under a flat-rate subscription.

Currenty Pro doesn't give me any API credits to use with coding assistants (Claude Code included ?) which is completely disjointed. And I need to be a business to use the API still ?

Honestly, Claude is so good, just please take my money and make it easy to do the above !

I don’t think you need to be a business to use the API? At least I’m fairly certain I’m using it in a personal capacity. You are never going to hit $120/month even with full-time usage (no guarantees of course, but I get to like $40/month).

Careful -- a solo dev using it professionally, meaning, coding with it as a pair coder (XP style), can easily spend $1500/week.

$1500 is 100 million output tokens, or 500 million input tokens for Claude 3.7.

The entire LOTR trilogy is ~.55 million tokens (1,200 pages, published).

If you are sending and receiving the text equivalent of several hundred copies of the LOTR trilogy every week, I don't think you are actually using AI for anything useful, or you are providing far too much context.
