June 4, 2025 -

Today, I just saw this article about claude code and see that they added claude code to pro plan. But you will only get 10-40 prompts every 5 hours. What do you guys think?

Pro plan subscribers can access Sonnet 4, but won’t be able to use Opus 4 with Claude Code Seems more like a demo mode, but still better than nothing.
