← All agents

What it's great at

• Multi-file code changes it can test
• Long documents and careful writing
• Building custom agents with the Agent SDK and MCP connectors

What it can do

• Claude Code reads, edits and tests code in your repo, and asks before modifying files
• Computer use: Claude can operate a computer through screenshots and actions via the API, and in Cowork on desktop (beta)
• Agent SDK for building custom agents; MCP connectors for tools and data

Example tasks to try

• "Find why the checkout test fails, fix it, and run the test suite."
• "Read these three contracts and list every renewal date and penalty clause."
• "Connect to our Notion through MCP and draft this week's status update."

Start in 5 minutes

1. Sign up at claude.ai (the free plan is enough to try the chat)
2. For coding, install Claude Code from the official docs and run it in a project folder
3. Give it one small, testable task and approve each change it proposes

Watch out for

Claude Code shares your plan's usage limits, so heavy agent runs can hit the cap.

Compare it

• ChatGPT agent vs Claude vs Gemini
• Copilot Studio vs other agent builders (Gemini Enterprise, Zapier, n8n, Lindy)
