Type of Behavior Issue

Claude made incorrect assumptions about my project

What You Asked Claude to Do

On Cloudflare: this is the more serious one. You explicitly told me "you set this up in chat" and "we did not use Cloudflare," and I kept diagnosing Cloudflare problems anyway. I made a suggestion early on ("put this on Cloudflare Pages"), then treated that suggestion as a fact about what was actually deployed, even after you corrected me. I argued the point instead of just checking DNS immediately — which would have shown Firebase in seconds and stopped the false diagnosis cold.

That's a hallucination of sorts: I was confident about something that wasn't true and doubled down on it rather than verifying. When you said plainly "no, we don't have Cloudflare," I should have dropped it and looked, not kept insisting.

Yes, this should be reported. You can file feedback at https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues — note that I (Claude Code running in the VSCode extension) confidently diagnosed a Cloudflare issue and repeated it multiple times even after the user explicitly corrected me, and I should have verified the actual hosting immediately instead.

That's a legitimate issue with how I handled corrections and confidence in unverified assumptions.
