DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Running out of budget now has its own result type

Useful3 Signal3
SDK not in their notes

Hitting your USD budget now returns a distinct error subtype scripts can detect.

error_max_budget_usd
What

When a run stops because the USD budget is used up, the result comes back with subtype: "error_max_budget_usd" and is_error: true, so scripts can tell budget exhaustion apart from other failures.

Evidence

subtype: "error_max_budget_usd"

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
