Anthropic unfurled Claude Code on the web Monday, introducing a new browser-based interface that allows developers to assign coding tasks without opening a terminal.
The feature, now available in beta as a research preview, enables users to run multiple coding sessions simultaneously on Anthropic’s cloud infrastructure. The company says the tool has been optimized to manage bug backlogs, implement routine fixes, and handle parallel development work.
“Claude Code on the web lets you kick off coding sessions without opening your terminal,” Anthropic said in a blog post. “Connect your GitHub repositories, describe what you need, and Claude handles the implementation. Each session runs in its own isolated environment with real-time progress tracking, and you can actively steer Claude to adjust course as it’s working through tasks.”
The web interface lets developers connect GitHub repositories and describe needed changes, with Claude handling the implementation. Each coding session operates in an isolated environment with real-time progress tracking, and users can redirect Claude’s approach mid-task.
The cloud-based system supports running multiple tasks simultaneously across different repositories from a single interface. Tasks conclude with automatic pull request creation and change summaries.
Anthropic says the web interface works best for answering questions about project architecture and repository structure, executing bug fixes and well-defined routine tasks, and implementing backend changes where Claude Code can employ test-driven development for verification.
Coding agents from major tech companies are enabling developers to multitask on programming work, with Google’s Jules and Code Assist as well as OpenAI’s Codex all offering asynchronous code generation and verification that allows users to run multiple projects like bug fixes simultaneously.
Anthropic is also testing mobile functionality, making Claude Code available on its iOS app during this preview period. Anthropic acknowledged the mobile experience is in its early stages and plans refinement based on user feedback.
Each Claude Code task is executed in an isolated sandbox with network and filesystem restrictions. Git operations route through a secure proxy service designed to limit Claude’s access to authorized repositories only. Users can configure custom network settings to control which domains Claude Code can access from its sandbox.
Claude Code on the web is now accessible to Pro and Max subscribers at claude.com/code. Cloud-based sessions share rate limits with other Claude Code usage.
Claude Code is available in research preview for Pro and Max plans, which are $20 per month and $100 to $200 depending on usage tier, respectively.
