Reason
The status error you are seeing in the Anthropic API, specifically the message "Usage blocked due to lack of credits.

Visit the Anthropic website and log in to your account. Navigate to the API Dashboard and go to the "Settings" section. Select "Plans and Billing" and add funds to your account by purchasing more credits.
Key Steps:

Navigate to the API Dashboard
Go to "Settings" > "Plans and Billing"
