Have you run into the bug where claude acts as if it updated the artifact, but it didn’t? You can see the changes in real time, but then suddenly it’s all deleted character by character as if the backspace was held down, you’re left with the previous version, but claude carries on as if everything is fine. If you point it out, it will acknowledge this, try again, and… same thing. The only reliable fix I’ve seen is to ask it to generate a new artifact with that content and the updates. Talk about wasting tokens, and no refunds, no support, you’re on your own entirely. It’s unclear how they can seriously talk about releasing this feature when there are fundamental issues with their existing artifact creation and editing abilities.

Yes, just had it happen a couple nights ago with a simple one pager I asked it to generate from some text in a project. It couldn't edit the existing artifact (I could see it being confused as to why the update wasn't taking in the CoT), so it made a new version for every incremental edit. Which of course means there were other changes too, since it was generating from scratch each time.

Yes, this has been happening a lot more the past 8 weeks.

From troubleshooting Claude by reviewing it's performance and digging in multiple times why it did what it did, it seems useful to make sure the first sentence is a clearer and completer instruction instead of breaking it up.

As models optimize resources, prompt engineering seems to become relevant again.

Yes, this was so frustrating.

I had to keep prompting it to generate new artifacts all the time.

Thankfuly that is mostly gone with Claude Code.

Happens all the time. Like right now

I came here to share the exact same thing - this has been happening for weeks now and it is extremely frustrating. Have to constantly tell Claude to rewrite the artifact from scratch or write it from scratch into a new artifact. This needs to be a priority item to fix.
