Claude Code Development Style Guide

This skill captures the programming style, patterns, and conventions used in the Claude Code codebase (@anthropic-ai/claude-code). Each topic below links to a dedicated deep-dive document with comprehensive examples and rules extracted from the actual source.

Summary

Claude Code is an ESM TypeScript Node.js CLI application using Ink (React for terminals) for its UI, esbuild for transpilation, and Bun internally for feature flags and dead code elimination. Key stack: TypeScript, Zod v4, lodash-es, React/Ink, esbuild.
