The page does not say anything about changing the way Agent SDK bills. I just tested Agent SDK and nothing has changed (yet).

You might be right and they will change this in the future, but that's speculative

> Claude Max and Team plans now include monthly API credits, which cover the Claude Agent SDK, the Claude API, and Claude Managed Agents.

This text has replaced the entirety of the page called "Use the Claude Agent SDK with your Claude plan."

Yes. Previously the page was all about how they were going to start charging for Agent SDK use with a banner on the top saying that, actually, they weren't going to do that.

...yes, a banner which has also now disappeared and been replaced, with the explicit mention that API credits "cover the Claude Agent SDK"?

What more do you need?

Well, it doesn't currently work that way on the latest SDK. If there's a change coming, it hasn't happened yet.

The monthly credit allocation hasn't rolled out yet either, so as of right now, we're effectively at the status quo. I'd expect the billing change to land once you can actually collect your Claude Console account.

The previous note confirming subscription billing has now reappeared
