Recommended action: Send identical anthropic-beta headers (except server-side-fallback-*); don't strip thinking blocks; only change model/max_tokens/sampling/stream/metadata/service_tier. Follow the rejection ladder: continuation rejected -> resend unchanged body with token -> if message names fallback_credit_token, retry without token. 'redemption temporarily unavailable' is transient: retry same request within 5 minutes. Option: Match headers and prompt fields exactly [evidence: official_recommended_action] Applies when: Anthropic Claude API / refusal fallback credit (fallback_credit_token) Steps: 1. Record the refused request's headers and body 2. On retry change only model and non-prompt fields 3. Keep all beta headers identical (omit context-1m on both for 1M-default models) 4. Apply the documented rejection ladder Expected: Request accepted / failure becomes diagnosable Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
