What's Wrong?

The /feedback command does not work when invoked in Claude Code. When typing /feedback and pressing Enter, the command fails to execute or provide any response/interface for submitting feedback.

What Should Happen?

The /feedback command should:

Open a feedback submission interface, OR
Prompt the user to enter feedback text, OR
Provide a way to submit feedback directly to Anthropic

This command should allow users to quickly report issues, suggestions, or general feedback without leaving the CLI.

or disable or change the documentation around it, so that users know what to use /feedback for.

~~.A very minor bug/incomplete feature. Not a blocker really. ~~

Update: @genesiscz is right - losing feedback text is a pain.

Well it kinda is because I wrote a lengthy bug report and wanted to get drafted github issue in the browser and it disappeared even with the feedback text... well

Same problem.

After an error with PDF analysis (https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/14038), it is impossible to send a bug report directly from the terminal.

still a problem in 2.1.7 on windows.

Given it's a built in way to report problems, which is capable of gathering useful context, it's really a shame it's been broken all this time. Feels like fixing it would save effort in the long run.

This has been broken for several months. I've never, ever been able to submit. It always just says "Could not submit feedback. Please try again later.", then it lets me futilely try again, then fails completely.

Same issue on macOS (Darwin 25.2.0), Claude Code v2.1.56, Anthropic API.

One additional UX issue: on the first attempt, the error is clear ("Could not submit feedback. Please try again later."). But when you retry, the command exits silently with no indication of whether the submission succeeded or failed (it says "Error submitting", but is that referring to the first attempt, or both?):

<img width="605" height="289" alt="First attempt - error message shown" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/edf5d818-6f1b-4c54-ae1b-7f7ccdc998d1" />

<img width="509" height="151" alt="Retry - silent exit, unclear if it worked" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/32305f13-fda4-4860-bc10-a41b669dda48" />

Even once the underlying submission bug is fixed, it would be good to always show a clear success/failure message so users aren't left guessing.

Also worth noting: this command is called /feedback in the CLI but /bug in the documentation, which makes it harder to find existing reports when searching. Filed #28565 to track the documentation gap.

Additionally, the feedback submission failure doesn't get logged to the debug files (~/.claude/debug/). Those files capture API calls, tool use, and hook events, but the /feedback network request and its error are not recorded. It would help if the error details were logged there so users can provide more useful bug reports when the submission fails.

I ran into this today as well. I'm using claude-code version 2.1.58 on MacOS Tahoe 26.3.1.

At the very least it would be good to fix the "press enter to retry" part so that people don't lose the bug report they just finished typing in.

FYI, I think the reason it didn't/doesn't work for me is probably because my company has disabled our github accounts from "contributing" outside of our own organization. I had to switch to my personal github account in order to add comments to existing bugs or create new ones.

That's not the problem, because I've always used a personal GitHub account
