Claude Code

Anthropic's agentic coding tool combining autonomous planning, execution, and validation with extensibility through skills, plugins, MCP servers, and hooks.

Core Concepts

Subagents: Specialized agents (planner, content-reviewer, campaign-debugger, docs-manager, ui-ux-designer, researcher, copywriter)

Agent Skills: Modular capabilities with SKILL.md + bundled resources (scripts, references, assets) loaded progressively

Slash Commands: User-defined operations in .claude/​commands/ expanding to prompts

Hooks: Event-driven shell commands (SessionStart, PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop, SubagentStop)

MCP Servers: Model Context Protocol integrations for external tools (GitHub, Jira, databases)

Plugins: Packaged collections distributed via marketplace
