I do think Claude does jiggery pokery with its model quality but I have had Clod appear any time of day.
What i find IS tied to time of day is my own fatigue, my own ability to detect garbage tier code and footguns, and my patience is short so if I am going to start cussing at Clod, it is almost always after 4 when I am trying to close out my day.
