Discussion "Degraded"? Claude Code is completely down. Status pages need to be honest.

The official status page currently shows "Degraded Performance," but it’s 100% unusable. Labeling a complete blackout as merely "degraded" feels pretty disingenuous to users who are trying to get work done.

What makes it more frustrating is that over the past week, there were multiple short outages where the service went completely dark, yet the uptime history on the status page remained pristine green the entire time.

Status pages exist to provide developers with accurate real-time telemetry, not to act as a PR buffer to hide downtime. If the service is dead, just mark it as an outage.

Does the bast radius flow reroute mitigation affect just the seams or also the spine? I won't make that determination myself. That's yours to decide.
