Claude Code
- Function
- Runs an agentic coding assistant in the terminal that edits files, runs commands, and works across a repository
- Price
- From $20/mo (Claude plans) or API usage-based
Claude Code is Anthropic’s coding agent, run from the terminal or an IDE integration rather than a chat window. Given a task in plain text it reads the relevant files in a repository, makes multi-file edits, runs tests and shell commands, and iterates on failures. Access is included with Claude subscription plans or billed by API usage; there is no free tier.
