Hi everyone! Boris from the Claude Code team here. @eschluntz, @catherinewu, @wolffiex, @bdr and I will be around for the next hour or so and we'll do our best to answer your questions about the product.

It would be amazing to be able to use an API key to submit prompts that use our Project Knowledge. That doesn't seem to be currently possible, right?

Claude 3.7 Sonnet scored 60.4% on the aider polyglot leaderboard [0], WITHOUT USING THINKING. Tied for 3rd place with o3-mini-high. Sonnet 3.7 has the highest non-thinking score, taking that title from Sonnet 3.5. Aider 0.75.0 is out with support for 3.7 Sonnet [1]. Thinking support and thinking benchmark results coming soon.

I'd like to second the thanks for Aider, I use it all the time.

Awesome work, Claude is amazingly good at writing code that is pretty much plug and play. Could you speak at all about potential IDE integrations? An integration into Jetbrains IDEs would be super useful - I imagine being able to highlight a bit of code and having a plugin check the code graph to see dependencies, tests etc that might be affected by a change. Copying and pasting code constantly is starting to seem a…

Part of our vision is that because Claude Code is just in the terminal, you can bring it into any IDE (or server) you want! Obviously that has tradeoffs of not having a full GUI of the IDE though

Anyone know how to get access to it? Notably i'm debating purchasing for Claude Code, but being on NixOS i want to make sure i can install it first.

If this Code preview is only open to subscribers it means i have to subscribe before i can even see if the binary works for me. Hmm

edit: Oh, there's a link to "joining the preview" which points to: https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/claude-c...

hey guys! i was wondering why you chose to build Claude code via CLI when many popular choices like cursor and windsurf fork VScode. do you envision the future of Claude code to abstract away the codebase entirely?

We wanted to bring the model to people where they are without having to commit to a specific tool or radically change their workflows. We also wanted to make a way that lets people experience the model’s coding abilities as directly as possible. This has tradeoffs: it uses a lot of tokens, and is rough (eg. it shows you tool errors and model weirdness), but it also gives you a lot of power and feels pretty awesome to…

I like this quite a bit, thank you! I prefer Helix editor and i hate the idea of running VSCode just to access some random Code assistant

Interesting - can you elaborate a little on what you mean by agentic search here?

I guess it's what sometimes it's called "self RAG", that is, the agent looks inside the files how a human would be to find that's relevant.

As opposed to vector search, or…?

You can get your HN profile analyzed by it and it's pretty funny :) https://hn-wrapped.kadoa.com/ I'm using this to test the humor of new models.
