Cancelling Claude subscription renewal immediately revokes Design access
Starting today, Anthropic now immediately revokes Claude Design access if you cancel your subscription plan renewal, even while you're still in a valid period you've already paid for. I had a Claude 20x max plan and cancelled my automatic renewal last week. My plan, which I've already paid $200 for, is valid through May 13, 2026, as confirmed on Anthropic's website:
https://claude.ai/settings/billing shows "Your subscription will be canceled on May 13, 2026."
For the past week even after I cancelled my renewal I was able to use Claude Design without issue and was actively working on a project through it. But starting a few hours ago, I'm now locked out with this message:
"Claude Design is available to users on subscription plans." in spite of having 3 more days of "max access."
This feels incredibly gross considering I ALREADY paid for Max 20x which includes Design access.
Also, unsurprisingly, Claude's support pages are completely broken: https://support.claude.com/en/articles/9015913-how-to-get-support
Following "Click your initials or name in the lower left corner of the Console and select “Get help” from the menu." leads to a broken flow that does nothing for me. Absolutely nothing happens when I click "Get Help".
I filed a chargeback through my credit card but I feel like others should be made aware that if you cancel your Claude subscription, you'll lose access to Design and potentially other products immediately, so back them up before doing so.

Ask HN: Is this the SWE workflow of the future?
Internally transferred to a new team in a top-10 F500 company. This team is pushing incredibly hard to be seen as "AI-First" & is very opinionated about what other teams should be doing.
I was explicitly told I am not to write any code by hand. Claude usage is mandatory coupled with a proprietary superpowers / speckit / GSD framework with 100+ agents and skill files.
All code reviews are agent driven. No one takes the time to actually understand anything. Documentation has become novel length slop, as have Jira tickets.
I ship stuff I don't understand. Management says there won't be a need for many SWEs in the future.
Am I alone in experiencing this? Is this the future of work?
