Third-party apps built on the Agent SDK
This is too broad. Anthropic says the credit only covers third-party apps that authenticate with your Claude subscription through the Agent SDK, not every app built on the SDK.
Full reasoning
Anthropic’s official help article does not say that all third-party apps built on the Agent SDK are covered.
Instead, it says the credit applies to “Third-party apps that authenticate with your Claude subscription through the Agent SDK.” In the same article, Anthropic also says API key users do not receive an Agent SDK monthly credit and continue on pay-as-you-go billing.
That means coverage depends on how the app authenticates. A third-party app built on the Agent SDK but using an API key / developer-platform billing is not covered by the subscription credit. So the post overstates the scope by omitting that limitation.

What the credit covers: ... Third-party apps that authenticate with your Claude subscription through the Agent SDK ... Available on Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise plans ... Claude Developer Platform accounts using an API key don't receive a credit. Pay-as-you-go billing continues as before.
