Overview
Anthropic’s command-line and IDE coding agent that reads, edits, and runs code across full repositories with deep reasoning.
Details
Claude Code is Anthropic’s official agentic coding tool, available as a CLI, VS Code extension, JetBrains plugin, and Slack integration. It works across entire codebases (reading files, making edits, running commands, and executing multi-step plans) powered by Claude Opus and Sonnet. Claude Code emphasizes safety with permission prompts on edits and shell commands, and supports MCP servers for extended capabilities. It is widely adopted for refactoring, large feature work, debugging, and migrations.
