That's a known mismatch of leetcode.com itself, it uses 2 different ids for same question, e.g.

{
  "status": null,
  "stat": {
    "total_acs": 2054,
    "question__title": "Closest Leaf in a Binary Tree",
    "is_new_question": false,
    "question__article__slug": "closest-leaf-in-binary-tree",
    "total_submitted": 6307,
    "frontend_question_id": 742,
    "question__title_slug": "closest-leaf-in-a-binary-tree",
    "question__article__live": true,
    "question__hide": false,
    "question_id": 743
}

You see for this "Closest Leaf in a Binary Tree", its backend id is 743 (used by leetcode-cli), while its frontend id is 742 (shown on webpage).

I guess leetcode.com is not showing all the questions to users (e.g. some very new questions are usually filtered out, or some questions are deleted for some reason?), anyway, there are gaps in the list, but on web page they try to hide those gaps thus invent a "frontend id" to work around this, just a bold guess...

@shaodan btw, what's your terminal in the screenshot above? I notice the list output is not well aligned, I guess it's caused by a non-mono font?

[shaodan]

@skygragon I'm visiting a jupyter terminal console, seems chrome cannot display check icon and lock icon with monospace font.

@shaodan could you try this latest commit to see if the id matches the web page?

$ npm install -g skygragon/leetcode-cli

Please let me know if there are new issues caused by this commit.
