Anthropic's coding agent for terminal, IDE and desktop

Claude Code reads your codebase, edits files, runs commands and handles git, all steered in plain language. The same agent runs in the terminal, in VS Code and JetBrains, as a desktop app, in the browser and on your phone, and settings and MCP servers come along. CLAUDE.md, hooks, skills and subagents let you tailor it closely to a project.
