Our reviewVideo reviewOur review of Claude CodeWatch the reviewClaude Code is a coding tool from Anthropic. It reads your codebase, edits files, runs commands and works with git. You describe a task in plain language, such as a bug fix, tests or a migration, and you review what it does.
It runs as a command-line tool on macOS, Linux and Windows (native or in WSL), as extensions for VS Code and JetBrains IDEs, in the Claude desktop app (macOS, Windows, Linux in beta) and on the web at claude.ai/code. The Claude app for iOS and Android can start and follow sessions. The AI model runs in the cloud, so it needs an internet connection.
The free Claude plan does not include it. Pro costs $20 per month ($17 per month billed yearly). Max costs $100 (5x) or $200 (20x) per month. Team seats cost $25 or $125 per month ($20 or $100 billed yearly). With a Claude Console account you pay for API tokens at standard API prices. Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud and Microsoft Foundry also work.
It is not open source: all rights are reserved by Anthropic PBC.
