#Third-party apps now draw from your extra usage, not your plan limits. Add more at claude.ai/setting

That error is coming from Anthropic’s side, not Discord/OpenClaw itself: Claude CLI reuse is still supported in OpenClaw, but Anthropic may require “extra usage” for some third-party / long-context requests.
First thing: what does this show?
openclaw --version
openclaw models status
openclaw logs --follow
If the log says something like Extra usage is required for long context requests, the usual workarounds are:
- Disable
context1mfor the selected Anthropic model so OpenClaw uses the normal context window. - Use an Anthropic API key instead of Claude CLI reuse for the more predictable billing path.
- Add fallback models so OpenClaw can continue when Anthropic rejects that request.
- If it’s auth rather than billing, re-check Claude CLI on the gateway host:
claude auth status --text
openclaw models auth login --provider anthropic --method cli --set-default

I'm getting different error: "Third-party apps now draw from your extra usage, not your plan limits. Add more at claude.ai/settings/usage and keep going"
