Claude Code plugs directly into your workflow—terminal, IDE, Slack or the web—and uses your local code context to build, debug and ship changes. On desktop you juggle multiple tasks, review visual diffs, preview servers and track PR statuses all in one window. In the terminal it reads your codebase, answers questions, executes CLI commands and even runs your tests. Native extensions for VS Code (and its forks) plus JetBrains bring the same tight feedback loop into your editor. The service rolls out across platforms: a browser and iOS preview for quick bug fixes or task kick-offs on the go, and a Slack app you can activate through your workspace admin. Pro users get access to Sonnet 4.6 and Opus 4.6 for short sprints in small repos at $20/month (or $200 billed yearly). Max plans bump up usage limits five- or twenty-fold, while team and enterprise tiers add seat management, higher API rates and advanced security features. All quotes exclude tax and rely on Anthropic’s current pricing, subject to change.
