The new communication style still made me react negatively, but I hope it will be better in use.

Quoted:

"Please explain the issue to me.

Claude Opus 5.5:

The extra drop is a bug in the billing refactor

The free-tier change accounts for only $1.50 of acme’s August drop. The other $9.92 comes from a bug in commit 0552feb. That commit was labelled “No behaviour change,” but it stops counting usage from the last day of the month.

What changed

Before the merge, aggregate.py used a half-open interval: /.../ last_day is a timestamp at midnight, not a whole day. So every event after 2026-08-31T00:00:00Z is excluded. The September period starts Sep 1, so it doesn’t pick these events up either. The usage isn’t moved to another month; it’s never billed at all."

Yeah, still abysmal. If you have the time or tokens, see if it will obey an explicit "LEAVE NO COMMENTS WHATSOEVER" command. Opus 5/Fable 5 outright ignored it.
