Claude Code refuses requests or incurs extra charges when "OpenClaw" is mentioned in a commit

·2026.05.01 02:21

Key point

It has been reported that when Claude Code detects phrases related to "OpenClaw," requests get rejected or usage is immediately consumed.

Details

It has been discovered that when a commit message or chat content during Claude Code usage contains "OpenClaw" or a specific JSON schema ({"schema": "openclaw.inbound_meta.v1"}), a serious error occurs in service usage.

The main symptoms are as follows:

  • Request rejection and session termination: When specific keywords are detected, the connection is immediately dropped or the request is rejected.
  • Sudden drop in usage limit: Right after executing a command, the session Usage Limit is consumed to 100%, or a usage limit message appears.

This phenomenon is presumed to be caused by Anthropic's overactive anti-abuse system. As users unintentionally consume paid usage, concerns about service reliability are growing, and the issue has currently been raised through GitHub issues and other channels.
