# typer breaking changes

Every breaking API change we have recorded in typer on PyPI: 7 breaking changes in 3 versions. Below are its newest 3 versions, removals and renames first, each with its source.

Newest change September 19, 2025

## 0.18.0

1 breaking change, first published September 19, 2025.

- **Configuration changed**  

Typer no longer pins Click below 8.3.0, so installs can pick up newer Click releases. Check your Click version if you depended on the old pin. [github.com](https://github.com/fastapi/typer/releases/tag/0.18.0)

## 0.17.0

4 breaking changes, first published August 30, 2025.

- **Removed** `typer.cli.rich_utils`  

typer.cli.rich_utils was removed in typer 0.17.0 [pypi.org](https://pypi.org/project/typer/0.17.0/)
- **Removed** `typer.core.rich_utils`  

typer.core.rich_utils was removed in typer 0.17.0 [pypi.org](https://pypi.org/project/typer/0.17.0/)
- **Removed** `typer.main.console_stderr`  

typer.main.console_stderr was removed in typer 0.17.0 [pypi.org](https://pypi.org/project/typer/0.17.0/)
- **Removed** `typer.main.rich_utils`

## 0.16.0

2 breaking changes, first published May 26, 2025.

- **Removed** `CliRunner.mix_stderr`  

The mix_stderr parameter of CliRunner was removed because Click 8.2 no longer needs it to access stderr output. Code that passes mix_stderr to CliRunner must drop that argument. [github.com](https://github.com/fastapi/typer/releases/tag/0.16.0)
- **Signature changed** `typer.core.TyperArgument.make_metavar`  

Was def make_metavar(self) -> str; now def make_metavar(self, ctx: Union\[click.Context, None\] = None) -> str. [pypi.org](https://pypi.org/project/typer/0.16.0/)

## Check your code

These are the changes. To see which of them reach your code, [scan a public repository](https://since.dev/scan.md), or have your coding agent call `check_code` with your manifest or lockfile over [MCP](https://since.dev/docs.md#mcp). [The API](https://since.dev/docs.md#api) reads every change in every version, not only the newest. On Team and up, a fix pull request opens for the changes that reach a connected repository. Nothing merges or deploys.

## Put your code on continuous management.

Scan a public repository now, or give your agent one line.

### See how out of date your code is.

[Scan a repository](https://since.dev/scan.md). Any public GitHub repository. No sign-in.

### Tell your agent what changed since it was trained.
