Starting April 4, 2026, at 12pm PT, Anthropic will implement restrictions on Claude Code subscriptions regarding the use of third-party tools, specifically OpenClaw.
This change means that users will not be able to apply their Claude subscription limits to OpenClaw, which may affect workflows that rely on this integration.
However, users will still retain the ability to utilize Claude with its own applications, maintaining some operational flexibility despite the new limitations.
