A set of educational architecture notes and deep-dive documentation analyzing the leaked source code of Claude Code, Anthropic's AI coding agent. It covers the agent loop, context engineering, tool system, and permission system across 21 chapters, with an online docs site.

Use cases

  • understand how claude code works internally
  • learn agent loop architecture for coding agents
  • study context engineering and context compaction techniques
  • build my own ai coding agent
  • learn how tool execution and permission systems work in ai agents
  • reverse engineer a production llm agent system

When to choose

  • you want to study a production-grade agentic coding system's architecture
  • you're building your own coding agent and want design references
  • you want to use Claude Code more effectively by understanding its internals

When to avoid

  • you need official Anthropic documentation or guarantees of implementation accuracy
  • you want runnable software rather than reading material
  • you need a stable reference — the analyzed source evolves quickly
