## Overview

Claude Code works on development requests in repository context: it reads relevant files, edits across files, runs project commands and iterates on results. Terminal, IDE, desktop and browser surfaces connect to workflows through project instructions, skills, hooks and MCP. Code review and diffs help inspect changes; command permissions, model access and available features depend on configuration and surface.
