Claude Code for VS Code

Unleash Claude’s raw power directly in your terminal. Search million-line codebases instantly. Turn hours-long workflows into a single command. Your tools. Your workflow. Your codebase, evolving at thought speed.

• Powerful intelligence: Use the latest Claude models using your Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise subscription, or pay-as-you-go pricing
• Works alongside you: Claude autonomously explores your codebase, reads and writes code, and runs Terminal commands with your permission.
• New, friendlier interface that makes it easier than ever to get started
• Integrated with the editor: Claude knows about your current file and text selection, and proposes changes directly inside your editor window.
• Powerful agentic features like subagents, custom slash commands, and MCP are supported. (These features work in the VS Code extension, but some can only be configured using the command-line interface)
