Is Claude Code going to cost $100/month? Probably not - it's all very confusing

Anthropic briefly updated its pricing page to move Claude Code (an AI coding agent feature) from the $20/month Pro plan to exclusive availability on $100-200/month Max plans, but quickly reverted the change after public backlash. Anthropic's Head of Growth claimed this was a test affecting only ~2% of new signups, though the change was widely visible and caused significant concern about affordability and lack of transparency.
