Claude Code

Claude Code is a strong default for deep reasoning, complex refactors, and codebase-wide tasks.

Models & auth

Claude Code runs on your own Anthropic access — a Claude subscription or an API key. Avibe drives the official CLI, so your authentication and model choice are exactly what you’d use in a terminal. Pick the model per agent in the Workbench, and keep credentials local.

Configure in Avibe

  1. Enable Claude Code on the setup wizard’s Choose your AI assistants screen, or later in Settings > Backends.
  2. Confirm the claude CLI path on its card in Settings > Backends.
  3. Choose the working directory: open a project in the Workbench, or set a group’s Working Directory.
  4. Route one or more chat groups or direct messages to an Agent on Claude Code in Settings > Messaging Platforms > Groups or Direct Messages.

Best for

Deep reasoning, multi-file refactors, and tasks that span a whole codebase. A common setup routes your #backend or complex-logic channels here — see Thread sessions for per-channel routing and mid-thread switching.

Usage notes

  • Keep your Claude Code authentication local.
  • Use chat threads to separate independent work.
  • Ask for a small first task to verify permissions and project path before a large refactor.
