Claude Code - Anthropic's Agentic Terminal Coding Tool
Claude Code is Anthropic's CLI-based agentic coding tool. It autonomously reads, edits, runs, and debugs code across your full repository directly from the terminal.

Claude Code reads repositories, edits files, runs commands and tests, uses command-line tools and MCP servers, and can open pull requests. It supports local terminal workflows as well as cloud sessions for longer or parallel tasks.
Developers use it for bug fixes, testing, refactoring, migrations, new features, CI work, and code review. Claude Code requires a Pro, Max, Team, Enterprise, or Console account; Console usage is billed at API rates, and subscription usage limits are shared with Claude.
