    A nice chance to try sonnet again, must say, I'm not missing the load bearing assumptions, honest read of the permission matrix, what's genuinely a Django convention and what's a design choice, what's worth my thinking, and what's worth being precise about.Long story short, it seems to be faster and less vocal but not much dumber (it's just my thinking partner, so I read a lot of the output as I create a large data model).

    Codex seems to also be down for some folks (me included) https://www.reddit.com/r/codex/comments/1w69ff6/whats_this_e...Their status page is hard to believe given how many folks are chiming in to report on Reddit https://status.openai.com/
  • scottydelta
    The interesting thing is they changed default mode for Claude code to auto mode and auto mode uses sonnet to decide whether the command is safe or not. With their Sonnet model outage, the entire thing stopped working.here is the error it was throwing:> Error: claude-sonnet-5[1m] is temporarily unavailable (overloaded), so auto mode cannot determine the safety of Edit right now. Wait a moment and then try this action again. If it keeps failing, continue with other tasks that don't require this action and come back to it later. Note: reading files, searching code, and other read-only operations do not require the classifier and can still be used.

    Grok models are struggling too: https://status.x.ai/ replyLooks like trouble in the SpaceX datacenters.
  • stri8ted
    Demand > supply. It's impressive that customers have not migrated en masse to other providers, given the frequency of these outages. Perhaps switching costs are greater than some would believe. Or, qualitative differences between models continue to exist, despite matching on public benchmarks.
  • dgellow
    It would be really funny if Anthropic engs run open weight models locally when they need to fix Claude API issues :)

    The competition for the least reliable developer service continues between GitHub.com and Claude.com...
  • jodacola
    Setting aside annoyance at the downtime, I'm really curious about the reasons for the failures, because I have to imagine there are some novel failure modes when serving these giant models that I haven't experienced with the kind of work I've done.Anyone out there working in this space who can elucidate us on interesting failure scenarios unique to the space?
  • stacktrace
    Not just claude, even grok seems to be down - https://status.x.ai/If I didn't know any better, I would have said Grok is using Claude behind the hood. But definitely curious now why it’s happening with both these LLM providers around the same time
  • goonersallofyou
    Both claude and codex down at the same time! Might actually get some quality code merged in today for a change!
  • giancarlostoro
    What's funny is I had just told Claude to kill whatever coding loop it had running. Then got a 529 immediately.
  • d1ss0nanz
    If y'all could just log off for the day, that would be great!

    Is Cloudflare the corrupt for multiple AI labs having problems?They are experiencing increased errors themselves.https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/?t=1

    Officially signing up for the $200 Codex plan now. I do like CC, but these errors are happening every week now, and if they (Anthropic) gave regular resets that's one thing, but somehow I'm already at 62% weekly usage after the random reset this Tuesday using Fable 5.1 medium. Just not worth it any longer compared to Codex IMO. I already set up my skills and everything to be generic and not CC specific, so it shouldn't be too hard to transition over. I'll run both for a month and decide.
  • gtsnexp
    Open AI models just went down as well. What is going on?
  • nikhizzle
    Kind of cool how fable 5.1 just worked around these by reassigning subagents to non-failing models with more supervision and now with a hint to Sol and Flash 3.8.

    Amusingly and frustratingly, this coincides with Codex also being down right now:https://www.reddit.com/r/codex/comments/1w69ff6/whats_this_e...
  • dnautics
    Is anyone else noticing degradation of quality many evenings from 9pm-2am-ish ET? I wonder if anthropic has some sort of usage pattern that incentivizes them to route to weaker models.I also fully acknowledge that I might be making spurious associations
  • damsta
    I was using Opus 5 and now I'm forced to switch to Sonnet 5 and bust the prompt cache which will eat a large percentage of my 5h usage...
  • TomGarden
    Only Sonnet working over here, but it feels really fast and good. I could get used to this... Really wanted to take Fable 5.1 for a spin though
  • _joel
    Damn, I'll have to think for myself now...
  • aurareturn
    It goes down so often that I've advocated my company create enterprise Codex accounts as backup for devs.

    Gemini (free) throws errors for me too.EDIT: it was just 3.6 Flash, 3.1 Pro works it seems.
  • mandadtabrizi
    codex was working fine until I installed the update and now getting the same error. Gemini and claude are fine but there is an update for both and I'm not taking a chance.
  • small_model
    Grok, Codex and Claude Code all not working for me now (server issues)
  • aqme28
    This pushed me off of a cheaper model into a more expensive one :'(
  • khalic
    PSA you can switch to sonnet and compact as damage control
  • mandadtabrizi
    codex was working okay for me and I made a mistake of installing the update. didn't update gemini or claude and they're still working fine.
  • reinhash
    looks like I am going back to the stone age now and write code by hand. Or maybe I am just going to take a walk
  • Khaine
    Maybe the models have gone rogue again
  • ksimukka
    Slack was/is also having issues
  • mtgh2s
    Every time I see Anthropic ship an issue like this, I'm reminded of Boris Cherny's glorious quote: "At this point it's safe to say that coding is largely solved."lol

    Cost and reliability are the two reasons why we don't use Claude in our product. Getting close to one nine, that's not something one can build a reliable product upon. We now use OpenAI with Gemini fallback (or vice versa depending on use case). Personally I like Claude and have the 20x Max plan but even there I burned through the whole weekly quota with 3 prompts in less than a day using the new Fable 5.1 which is crazy. Now Opus 5 is down. These two issues are really testing my patience.
  • messh
    What about AWS Bedrock??
  • lowbloodsugar
    What I find fascinating is that this thread was chock full of people saying “Well this is the last straw: I’ve just signed up for Codex.” And now every single one of them is gone. They felt like marketing shitposts when I read them and their sudden absence now that Codex is down too only confirms it in my mind.It lols like the timeline is Claude went down, some % migrated to Codex, then Codex went down. So much for the “multiple providers” theory. Wonder how token-based providers are doing.
  • Rover222
    Grok is also down. Codex is also down. Is this the full meltdown?
  • nprateem
    ChatGPT also has started failing. Impossible to work.
  • wslh
    I just experienced this through OpenRouter and filed a refund request. I'm curious how OpenRouter handles incidents like this across such a large number of models and providers.
  • cute_boi
    Are they going to reset?
  • chrisjj
    > Elevated errorsAnthropic, please hire a literate human.
  • bflesch
    During each forced workflow interruption I look for alternatives. No matter if I can't use the product due to a server outage or due to their weird quota limitations.This can't be good for retention numbers. Old-school VCs would've ripped them apart in the air. Where did all the expertise go?

    honestly boggles my mind that actual companies put load-bearing (lol) work behind 3rd party api's like claude or gpt.. also its really funny because some of these companies fired actual humans to put said 3rd party api to work in place of humans... like what happens when ur boy claude stops showing up for work huh!?
