Editorial selection guide
Last checked:
Getting started
- Sign in at claude.ai/code and choose a repository it may access.
- Describe the goal, expected change, and checks to run in one focused task.
- Review changes in the cloud session, answer questions, and bring an accepted result back to the repository.
Decision points
- Choose the web flow when you want a cloud session linked to a GitHub repository.
- For local files, use the separate terminal or desktop Claude Code route.
Limits
- Cloud sessions need repository access and an eligible plan; organization settings can differ.
- Inspect commands and edits; agent output and passing tests alone do not guarantee correctness.
Frequently asked questions
Does the web version need a local install?
No. Official docs describe starting a cloud session in the browser, with repository access configured separately.
Does it keep running when I close my laptop?
A cloud session runs on remote infrastructure and can be checked again after your laptop closes.
