Netlify range issue everywhere

Hey! I have used Netlify CLI before. I recently got a new mac and installed it. I am following this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_XtNZHC_-o and the second step in is to punch in “netlify init” and I get this…

otro % netlify init
› RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded

I’m hoping this is a weird config thing that I don’t know. Cannot get any Netlify CLI command to do anything but pop back this same error. Help would be amazing, thanks!

@bstrout It may change nothing, but that video tutorial is seemingly 3 years old and not created by Netlify.

Here’s the current documentation, just in case any of the steps are different from what you’ve done thus far:

If you do find that you need to lodge an issue, you can do so here:

Hey Nathan,
correct on all fronts. Following the most recent docs… same thing. Netlify is installed but ANY command I run gives me the same error

Not sure what to do here, kind of at a standstill

@bstrout If you’re following Netlify’s documentation and it isn’t working, the best you could probably do would be to check/confirm your own system details, uninstall/reinstall the CLI etc.

Then failing that, lodge an issue against the GitHub repository (linked above).
As the team working on the CLI they’ll be in the best position to provide guidance.

Hey Nathan any way to expedite a response from the CLI team above. I’m pitching Netlify for this project and we’ve been at a stand still with no response for a week. I need access to Netlify Dev. Any additional help would be super appreciated

@bstrout It’s interesting to see that others are reporting the issue in your GitHub issue too.

@hrishikesh See above.

FWIW, getting same problem here: fresh Mac & install, throwing same error. Running ^19.0.2 of Netlify CLI, on node v22.14.0

I am unable to reproduce this error with the Node.js and Netlify CLI version being reported. The bug form asks for the output of this command:

npx envinfo --system --binaries --npmPackages netlify-cli --npmGlobalPackages netlify-cli

However, that output has not been provided by anyone on the issue. Would someone that is experiencing this error please provide the output of the command above?
