🤖 Anthropic admits bugs that broke Claude Code performance

Anthropic confirmed issues that caused Claude Code to degrade in March. The team identified three changes that impacted the agent.

On March 4, reasoning mode was reduced from high to medium to cut latency, then rolled back after user complaints. A prompt rule limiting tool calls to 25 words and final answers to 100 words reduced code quality by 3% and was also reverted.

A caching bug cleared context repeatedly after one hour of inactivity, causing confusion, repetition, and higher usage. The fix was deployed on April 10.

All issues are now resolved and usage limits were reset.
