r/ClaudeAI on Reddit: Claude Code Auto Update Failed

August 28, 2025 -

Anybody got the error where Claude Code says it failed to auto-update? This happened after every morning I woke up. Though I still see the new information when enter "/release-notes", however, the new releases/features are not there in CC.

My work around was to create a script to uninstall and reinstall it again after every the error happens. Although it was only once a day, but it's a pain and using "/doctor" or installing it locally as CC suggests still doesn't solve the issue.

I got it every day, I can't remember when it started. Claude doctor does not work. I exit Claude code and do the upgrade from CLI.

I can confirm, couldn't get rid of this issue yet. MacOS Sonoma, M3
