Claude Code Subscriptions CANCELLED (I have a FIX)

🚀

Hey Academy,

Anthropic just made a major change to Claude Code—you can no longer use the Max subscription with the -p parameter or the Agent SDK. If you've built automations or your own AI agents on top of Claude Code, this affects you directly.

In this video I break down exactly what changed, why Anthropic made the move, and what it means for developers relying on the SDK for automated workflows.

I'll also walk through a clever workaround called Claude Heartbeat that uses Claude Code hooks to inject messages into your interactive session—essentially keeping your automations alive.

Along the way, you'll learn how Claude Code hooks actually work and see practical ideas for using them in your own projects, like auto-committing code to GitHub when a session ends.
