This hasn’t been true for some months. Claude has gotten better about adding latest versions of crates, and when it does encounter a breaking change from what it expects it is usually very quick about finding the change in the docs or crate source code.

What you are talking about used to be a pain point, but is now pretty much gone.

Rust can be a real superpower for AI-assisted dev work, because the compiler outputs very good errors, and the type system catches most safety bugs.
