Overview

Claude Code brings Anthropic’s models into a terminal-first agent loop: plan changes, run commands, and iterate with repository awareness. It targets engineers who want deep reasoning and long context when shipping complex changes.

Expect a different rhythm than a GUI editor — best for developers comfortable with CLI workflows and code review in the terminal.
