Agreed, and sorry for the snarky tone in my reply. The $100 / month plan is what I use at home and it has always been more than sufficient for something like what you describe. It does sound like maybe you have MCPs or skills that might be changing the default behavior as the other poster suggests, or the agent somehow interpreted your request as wanting it to read node_modules in addition to the code or something. In any event I hope you or Anthropic or both figures out what the issue was.
