Claude Code.
A friend-of-friend walk-through for the curious. Eight minutes to decide if it's for you. Fifty more if it is.
Claude Code is Anthropic's AI assistant that runs on your computer — it can see your files, remember you between conversations, and do real work while you're not at the keyboard.
