About Claude Code

Claude Code is an AI coding agent from Anthropic. You can hand it a bug fix, a testing task, or even a code migration lasting several days, and guide and review its work in the terminal, an IDE, Slack, or on the web. Using agentic search, it can map out and explain the project structure and dependencies of an entire codebase in seconds without manually selecting context files. It also works with GitHub, GitLab, and command-line tools to read issues, write code, run tests, and submit pull requests. Claude Code is included in the Claude Pro and Max plans.
