Anthropic kicks off Code with Claude

This reads less like a generic conference and more like Anthropic using the event to turn Claude Code into a broader developer platform.

• –The schedule centers Claude Code, not just the broader Claude brand, which suggests Anthropic is leaning hard into coding as the flagship use case
• –Sessions like "What's new in Claude Code" and "Beyond the basics with Claude Code" imply the company is shipping workflow-level improvements, not just model tweaks
• –The presence of talks on GitHub-scale usage, proactive agent workflows, and managed agents points to a push toward production deployment patterns
• –The livestreamed format makes the conference a marketing surface for the developer ecosystem, not just an in-person meetup
