Claude Code & Homebrew

I use Claude Code at work. Like everything else, I try to install it using Homebrew. There was a feature of Claude Code I wanted and Homebrew seemed to not have the version that supported it yet. I did a little looking and that's when I learned:

Homebrew offers two casks. claude-code tracks the stable release channel, which is typically about a week behind and skips releases with major regressions. claude-code@latest tracks the latest channel and receives new versions as soon as they ship.

https://code.claude.com/docs/en/overview#homebrew

So, I uninstalled claude-code and installed cloud-code@latest and I got the latest version!

There's another important note on that page:

Homebrew installations do not auto-update. Run brew upgrade claude-code or brew upgrade claude-code@latest, depending on which cask you installed, to get the latest features and security fixes.
