I wish we could pin down not only the model but also the way the UI works as well.
Last week Claude seemed to have a shift in the way it works. The way it summarises and outputs its results is different. For me it's gotten worse. Slower, worse results, more confusing narrowing down what actually changed etc etc.
Long story short, I wish I was able to checkpoint the entire system and just revert to how it was previously. I feel like it had gotten to a stage where I felt pretty satisfied, and whatever got changed ... I just want it reverted!
I agree, much slower and worse output. It is substantially worse now than it was weeks ago.
It spends a lot of time coming up with “UI options” (Select 1, 2 or 3 with a TUI interface) for me to consider when it could just ask me what I want, not come up with a 5 layer flow chart of possibilities.
Overall I think it is just Anthropic tweaking things to reduce costs.
I am paying for a Max subscription but I am going to reevaluate other options.
You can install or using a specific version of claude by pinning it.
Like `npx @anthropic-ai/claude-code@2.0.14` or `npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code@2.0.14`
Claude Code is distinct from the Claude models.
