Maybe I'm the only one, but does anyone else have an issue on macOS where Claude Code never updates itself automatically and you always have an error? I guess it's in times when I leave the CLI tool running and an update comes in overnight. But the alert seems to indicate it should update and fails.

Depends on your installation method. I have CC installed on macOS with `bun install` and it self-updates. But you could have different results with, oh, npm or yarn or homebrew or nix or probably asdfvm or maybe there’s a native .pkg I don’t know about or…you get the idea.

I have the same issue since for ever (and update by hand because of it). I always assumed it is because it gets confused by me using Volta for node/npm version management and Volta‘s shim masking where Claude Code is globally installed.

Yeah, I uninstalled and reinstalled with homebrew, and it’s working well now.

Always have a lot of sessions running locally and don’t recall this

Uninstall it and install it via home brew fixed it for me.
