What do you want to do?

3 use cases

  • Explain complex code in an unfamiliar project

    Ask Claude Code in your terminal to explain how a part of an unfamiliar codebase works.

    View prompt
    Use Claude Code in the anthropics/claude-code-style workflow: open the project at <project-path> in the terminal, run `claude`, and ask it to explain how <module-or-feature> works, including the files it depends on. Expected output: a short written explanation naming those files. Verify by opening one named file and confirming the described function or flow appears there.

  • Delegate routine coding tasks from the terminal

    Hand repetitive edits and small fixes to Claude Code using plain-language requests.

    View prompt
    In the project at <project-path>, start Claude Code with `claude` and ask it to <routine-task-description>. Expected output: the listed edits made to the project files. Verify by searching the project for the old pattern and confirming it no longer appears where it should be changed.

  • Handle git workflows with natural language

    Describe a git task in plain words and let Claude Code carry it out in your project.

    View prompt
    In the project at <project-path>, run `claude` and ask it to <describe-git-workflow-outcome>. Expected output: the git steps reported back in the session. Verify by checking the repository state in your own git client or terminal before pushing.

How to use Claude Code

  1. Check you have what it needs: A terminal on macOS, Linux, or Windows; A local project directory you want Claude Code to work in; Permission to run one of the install methods listed in the README.
  2. Open anthropics/claude-code on GitHub and read the README and license.
  3. Install Claude Code with one of the README methods, for example curl -fsSL https://claude.ai/install.sh | bash on macOS or Linux.
  4. Navigate to your project directory.
  5. Run claude.
  6. Ask in natural language to explain how a named module or feature works, and to list the files it depends on.

These steps come from our top use case, Explain complex code in an unfamiliar project, which also has a copy-paste agent prompt.
