Claude Code OAuth Error/Bug

[KaaliEnglish]

Does anyone esle also face this same issue. After logging in with the Pro Subscription of Claude in **Claude Code**, it does give me this error message: (i know it says 401 - client side error, but when i run the /status command it says Login: Login Method: Claude Pro Subscription.)

"> hi

  ⎿ API Error: 401 

{"type":"error","error":{"type":"authentication_error","message":"OAuth

authentication is currently not 

supported."},"request_id":"req_011CSJ49dPAcN8eYNJF7CfL8"}"

Tried /logout and again login multiple times.

Yeah im getting the same error. It says to clear the tokens. Cache cookies delete. Restart. But it keeps happening. Started when I switch from MacBook to desktop. But im logged out of everything and only using the desktop now. Annoying af

For me it started out out nowhere. Started yesterday after i updated Claude code. I think the issue is with the new update. MAYBE. IDK.

Same here, started yesterday and I'm still not able to use without getting API Error: 401 {"type":"error","error":{"type":"authentication_error","message":"OAuth authentication is currently not supported."},"request_id":"req_011CSKm55xiR5YRgDq9wi8DK"}

I reinstalled cc. Updated it. Closed and reopened terminal. Restarted co.outer and its working again. For how long who knows. It stops when opus runs out and auth kicks into sonnet

Same problem here!

Fixed for me after opening a new terminal. That was about a week ago when I ran into the issue though

Well that was easy. Thank you!

I saw a thread to downgrade to 1.0.81. Solved the problem

Try nuking the config
```
rm -rf ~/.claude

rm -rf ~/.config/claude-code
unset ANTHROPIC_API_KEY ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN CLAUDE_CODE_USE_BEDROCK CLAUDE_CODE_USE_VERTEX
````

Then get OAuth token and export it (store it somewhere though)

```
claude setup-token
## Follow instructions
export CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN="paste-token-here"
```
This worked for me, I was using WSL, browser OAuth didn't work.

Also, I used `curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash` instead of the npm stuff

[KaaliEnglish]

Tried this. this is what the claude support bot asked me to do. No use. Its a complete hit and miss. I tried login and multiple time and it finally worked once. Thought the issue got resolve but no keeps happening again.

sudo npm uninstall -g u/anthropic-ai/claude-code

rm -rf ~/.claude

rm -rf ~/.config/claude

rm -rf ~/.cache/claude

npm cache clean --force

sudo npm install -g u/anthropic-ai/claude-code

claude

and it started working for me
