Claude Code — The Terminal-First Coding Agent
80.9% on SWE-bench. Auto mode that runs while you're in meetings. Agent teams that code in parallel across your entire codebase.
Claude Code is Anthropic's terminal-first coding agent — evolved from "really impressive autocomplete" to your AI development team that never clocks out.
You give it a goal — it enters the agentic loop: plan, execute, observe results, iterate until complete. One user request triggers dozens of tool calls — reading files, searching patterns, editing modules, running tests, fixing failures — without additional human input.
After the SpaceX partnership that doubled rate limits, it's suddenly accessible to developers who kept hitting walls before.
Built-in tools are deliberately minimal: Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Glob, Grep. The model is the intelligence layer. You manage outcomes, not tools.
