Why a couple warnings and timeout? 1 warning that the next incident will lead to a ban should be enough. Treat people like adults, not kids.

adults make mistakes and the situation was murky without clear guidance.

this was the experience for some claude subscribers just a couple weeks ago:

1. download opencode

2. select claude as a model

3. browser window opens, asking you to sign in. typical oauth screen.

4. everything works, prompt away

5. some days/weeks pass

6. you get permanently banned

now if you add one warning email just before step (6.) then that doesn't really help. what if it bounces? what if people don't check their emails? put a big flashy red warning into claude code? sure, but what if users accidentally dismiss it or simply do not understand it (non tech folks, non native english speakers)

its just the friendly and correct thing to do, in my opinion
