About this project

Claude Code is an agentic coding tool developed by Anthropic that lives in your terminal. It understands your codebase and helps you code faster by executing routine tasks, explaining complex code, and handling git workflows -- all through natural language commands. It can be used in the terminal, in an IDE, or by tagging @claude on GitHub. The official documentation is available at https://code.claude.com/docs/en/overview. ## Getting Started Installation via npm is deprecated.
