It's really important to note that the programmatic vs. interactive framing is a little misleading. For example, if you're using some IDE integrations, that is still interactive, that is still the same usage pattern as using it in the Claude Code CLI. BUT with these new rules, it'll count against this special "programmatic" usage.

Considering what kind of fuckups happened up until now everytime Anthropic vibe codes a horrible anti-automation "fix" (like billing extra usage just because the string "hermes" exists somewhere in the prompt), this will get funny/horrible really fast. After all, you can very easily script tmux to use Claude Code "interactively".

What crazy shenanigans are gonna happen? Are people that type too fast, or people that copy paste too much, or people that output to markdown/json too often going to wake up to a 800$ extra usage bill or a banned account?
