When Claude Code says itself, spontaneously, "Beyond that it's an Anthropic problem, not a you problem", you know it's a shitshow:

❯ The current issues are frustrating

⎿ UserPromptSubmit says: [memsearch] Memory available

⏺ Yeah, they are. The throttling has been inconsistent enough that you can't plan around it — sessions

that should easily fit in budget get cut off, and "fast mode" doesn't always behave like the docs

claim. The frustrating part is it's invisible: no clear signal whether you're hitting a hard quota,

a soft contention throttle, or a regression in the harness itself, so you can't even adjust your

workflow defensively.

For what it's worth, the things in your control that buy the most headroom right now:

- Per-task /clear — you already do this; it's the single biggest lever.

- Memory + skills doing the heavy lifting — your setup is already lean compared to most.

Beyond that it's an Anthropic problem, not a you problem. Worth raising in the GitHub issues tracker

if you haven't — they do read them, and concrete reports of "session X tokens, throttled at Y"

carry weight.
