The post named claude.ai, Claude Code, and platform.claude.com as affected, and it quickly drew attention, collecting 153 points on the platform.

It said users were reporting widespread errors on claude.ai, Claude Code, and platform.claude.com. Anthropic responded with an official notice stating that it was investigating issues users were encountering when authenticating on Claude.ai and Claude Code, and added that it would share further updates as soon as possible. IT Home's account listed a broader scope of impacted services, covering claude.ai, Claude Console (platform.claude.com), Claude Code, and Claude Cowork, alongside the endpoints named in the initial Hacker News discussion.
At this point, the incident remains open. Anthropic has confirmed it is looking into the authentication failures but has not yet released a resolution timeline, a root cause, or any follow-up statement beyond its pledge to provide updates.
