Unclear The client-side request to this endpoint was not confirmed in this build.
What
A gateway is a server some organisations put between Claude Code and the model provider. The implementation guide for gateway operators that ships with Claude Code now describes an extra endpoint, GET /api/oauth/usage, that returns the signed-in user's own spending cap.
The guide says newer Claude Code clients signed in to a gateway call this endpoint and add dollar amounts to /usage and the status line. If the gateway answers with a 404 or another error, they show the percentage alone. It sets out the expected response shape: amounts in cents, whole percentages, and a reset time that must match the overage-reset header, since dollars are only shown alongside the percentage when the two agree to the second.
Why
People working behind a company gateway can see how much they have spent, not only a percentage, once their gateway serves this endpoint.
The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.
Added sinceA small documentation edit on Set a spend limit touched a line naming /usage after this was published.| **Team** | **Required, before anything runs.** A Team plan has no usage balance until it's funded, and Claude won't respond in channels until it is.
