Sorry for the misleading wording on this page; we’ve updated it to clarify that the Claude Agent SDK can still be used with subscriptions.

Ah, that sucks. I'm using Paseo to run Claude Code; I guess that just got a whole lot more complicated.

We just updated the docs to clarify how API credits can be used w/ claude -p: https://support.claude.com/en/articles/15036540-use-the-clau...

Thank you, that's great news!

"You can still use the Claude Agent SDK, claude -p, and third-party apps with your subscription limits."

Using Paseo as well. This would be a deal breaker for me for sure.

Yep they're definitely getting ready to yank using your subscription with the agent SDK - this page has just been pulled: https://support.claude.com/en/articles/15036540-use-the-clau...

That's not a good sign for Conductor...

this is a common question. we're updating the faq now to make sure it's more clear

Thanks for sharing this! These vendor lock-in attempts are very annoying.
