so what's the point? you can use claude sub.
AFAIK - Of the big three only OpenAI explicitly allows third party harnesses without paying exorbitant API rates. It's one of the primary reasons I still use them.
To avoid these problems some folks use tools like herdr which operate like tmux or via the SDK to drive the official harness, rather than speaking directly to the API routes.
Whether and under what circumstances they actually enforce this these days, I do not know. Regardless, if your preferred harness does not support that authentication flow (which most don't), then it doesn't really help you even if you could. For what it's worth, I do not consider the Claude Code ACP adapter an adequate solution.
