Claude returned elevated errors across many models for about five hours on 2026-07-30

Sources: status page
Summary: The Claude status page records elevated error rates across many models from 05:57 to 10:48 UTC on 2026-07-30. The timeline is a series of partial recoveries, with a fresh regression or a new investigation posted after each of the recovery statements at 06:26, 07:33, 08:06, and 10:03 UTC. The incident covers claude.ai, the API, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork. No root cause is published.
Why it matters: Claude-backed coding tools degraded for a second consecutive day, and the repeated partial recoveries mean no single all-clear was a reliable signal to resume work.
