    "Stabilized errors". Hard to tell what Anthropic's difficulty is here. Service or English.

  • It has been like that for the last 2 hours.

    Claude is a one 9 service.

  • Same here, our Claude API calls started throwing 529s this morning. Added a simple retry-with-backoff and it recovered fine once the incident cleared, but definitely caught us off guard.
  • Hopefully they are fixing fable burning through entire sessions in minutes
  • Contrast with Claude Government with all green 100% uptime. So either no one is using it or the people within Anthropic running that one have different priorities.
  • Claude late to work again? And especially on a Monday it is now down? Oh dear.

    Why don’t you give Claude a break, non-stop asking too many questions at it and putting it in hundreds of loops to cause it to crash out.

    Clearly Claude can’t handle that.

  •     API Error: 529 Overloaded. This is a server-side issue, usually temporary — try again in a moment. If it persists, check https://status.claude.com.

  • Again, again and again.
  • Subscribed to Cursor again. UI now looks the same. Literally zero switching costs. Crazy how commoditized this is.
  • Discovered this after couple of hours of being confused. In normal chats, Claude desktop doesnt even display API Error: 529. It only does so in Cowork tasks. The regular chat just does an infinite "Clauding" animation.
