Claude Code (web)

What it is

Claude Code on the web is the browser version of Claude’s agentic coding tool. Sessions run on Anthropic-managed cloud infrastructure at claude.ai/code — you connect a GitHub repo, write a prompt, and Claude works on it in an isolated VM. Sessions persist after you close the tab and can be pulled back into your terminal with claude --teleport.

Currently in research preview.

Where to find it

On the web

claude.ai/code. The left nav has Sessions (your history) and Routines (scheduled and event-triggered sessions).

How to use it

First-time setup

Visit claude.ai/code and click New session.
Connect GitHub one of two ways:
- Install the Claude GitHub App on specific repos during web onboarding (scoped per-repo; required for auto-fix).
- Run /web-setup in your terminal to sync your local gh CLI token to your claude.ai account.
Pick a cloud environment. A Default is provided; or add your own with a network access level (None / Trusted / Full / Custom), environment variables, and an optional setup script.

Start a session from the web

At claude.ai/code, click Select a repository and choose the repo.
Toggle Plan mode on if you want Claude to propose an approach before editing, or leave it off for direct execution. Pick a model from the selector.
Write your prompt and Submit.
Watch Claude work in the session view. Leave inline comments on the diff to steer, or open the PR when it’s done.

Start from your terminal

claude --remote "your prompt" fans out a cloud session from the CLI. Each call creates an independent session, so you can run several in parallel.
/tasks in the CLI lists your background sessions.
claude --teleport pulls an active cloud session down to your terminal; use /teleport (or /tp) inside an existing session to do the same without restarting.

Good to know

Branch push rules. By default Claude can only push to branches prefixed claude/. Enable Allow unrestricted branch pushes per repository to lift this.
Resource ceilings. ~4 vCPUs, 16 GB RAM, 30 GB disk per session.
Auto-fix pull requests. Once a PR is open, click Auto-fix on the CI status bar and Claude will watch the PR and respond to CI failures and review comments automatically. Requires the Claude GitHub App.
Routines are the web version of scheduled tasks. Create them at claude.ai/code/routines or by running /schedule in the CLI. See Scheduled tasks.
Session sharing. Pro/Max share as Private or Public; Team/Enterprise as Private or Team. Repo-access verification is off by default — check for sensitive content before sharing.
Zero Data Retention orgs can’t use cloud sessions.
