Insight: Claude Code for web is Anthropic's asynchronous coding agent — their answer to OpenAI's Codex Cloud and Google's Jules. It wraps the CLI tool in a container with --dangerously-skip-permissions, points at a GitHub repository, and kicks off work. Once done, it opens a branch and optionally creates a PR. It includes a "teleport" feature to copy chat transcript and files down to local Claude Code CLI.

Detail: Available at claude.ai/code and in the Claude mobile app. Users can send additional prompts while it's running (queued and executed sequentially). The async model enables a new workflow where engineers can fire off multiple tasks across different repos and review PRs later — supporting the "orchestrator" pattern.
