r/ClaudeAI on Reddit: Don't forget to update your Claude CLI! It makes a huge difference
June 11, 2025 -

Hey everyone, just wanted to share a quick tip that saved me a lot of headaches. I was getting super frustrated with my Claude CLI vesion 1.0.0 constantly throwing "Invalid tool argument" errors and getting stuck in loops. Turns out I was running an outdated version.

After updating to the latest version (1.0.18), it's like night and day - feels way smarter and more responsive.

The Anthropic team seems to be pushing fixes and improvements constantly.

So friendly reminder: take a minute to update your CLI.

npm install -g /claude-code@latest

You can check your current version with:

claude --version

Current version is 1.0.18

For most use cases, --append-system-prompt is recommended as it preserves Claude Code’s built-in capabilities while adding your custom requirements. Use --system-prompt or --system-prompt-file only when you need complete control over the system prompt.

How I use Claude Code (+ my best tips)
September 29, 2025 - It has trouble resolving patches, has to rewrite files often, and really struggles to update extremely large files. This isn't just about file size, Claude Code works great with complex tasks. I find it gets stuck incredibly rarely (I'm not even sure if I've noticed it at all).
