Because npm org/user @anthropic does not exist, but @anthropic-ai does! Maybe the former is older or deprecated?

extent analysis

TL;DR

Update the documentation to use the correct npm organization @anthropic-ai instead of @anthropic to fix the installation issue.

Guidance

  • Verify the existence of the @anthropic-ai organization and the claude-cli package in the npm registry to ensure the suggested improvement is accurate.
  • Update the documentation to reflect the correct installation command: npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-cli.
  • Test the updated installation command to confirm it resolves the ERR_PNPM_FETCH_404 error.
  • Consider adding a note to the documentation about the deprecated @anthropic organization to avoid confusion.

Example

npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-cli

Notes

The suggested improvement assumes that the @anthropic-ai organization is the correct replacement for the deprecated @anthropic organization. If this is not the case, further investigation may be necessary to determine the correct organization and package names.

Recommendation

Apply the workaround by updating the documentation to use the correct npm organization @anthropic-ai. This should resolve the installation issue and allow users to access the feature.
