Claude Code

Anthropic's agentic coding tool that works in your terminal, IDE and the web.

What is Claude Code?

Claude Code is Anthropic's AI coding agent. It reads and understands your codebase, edits files, runs commands and tests, and works through multi-step tasks such as building features, fixing bugs or refactoring, asking for permission before taking sensitive actions. It started in the terminal and is now also available in IDEs, on desktop and on the web. Developers can extend it with custom commands, hooks and tool integrations. Access comes with Anthropic's paid Claude plans or through pay-as-you-go API usage. It is widely regarded as one of the strongest agents for serious software work and complex codebases.
