Claude Code 'No Longer Charge for Classifier Requests': Why This Session Isn't Eligible
Claude Code says auto mode will stop charging for classifier requests, then tells you this session isn't eligible. You're paying for safety checks other sessions get free, usually because a gateway drops them. Who is billed, the fix, and why since 2.1.319 some gateway sessions ask you to approve actions instead.

Claude Code 'Compacted Using a Summary Written While You Were Away'? Turn It Off
You stepped away and came back to 'Compacted using a summary written while you were away', or in the terminal 'Compacted while idle, before the prompt cache expired'. It's idle compaction, a cost-saving feature Anthropic switched on server-side. How to turn it off in settings.json or /config, and the exact rules I found in the code.

Claude Code 'There's an Issue With the Selected Model': It's Usually Just a 404
I pointed Claude Code at a fake API and fed it every kind of error. Any 404 — a typo, a stray /v1, a gateway's error page — produced this exact message. Here's how to tell which one you have.

Claude Code on Vertex AI: Why You Get 404s, Wrong Regions and an Opus-Sized Bill
Model not found on Google Cloud's Agent Platform is rarely one problem. A malformed region is silently ignored and falls back to us-east5, ANTHROPIC_VERTEX_PROJECT_ID overrides the project in your credentials, and a deployment with no pinned model is billed at the Opus rate.

Claude Code SSL Certificate Verification Failed: Fix It by Error Code
API Error: Unable to connect to API: SSL certificate verification failed (UNABLE_TO_GET_ISSUER_CERT_LOCALLY) or Self-signed certificate detected (SELF_SIGNED_CERT_IN_CHAIN) behind Zscaler or any TLS-inspecting proxy. What the code in brackets means in the 2.1.316 wording, why the OS trust store comes before NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS, and the certificate fixes from 2.1.310 to 2.1.318.
