You pay for Claude. Now try Claude Code.
The chat answers questions. Claude Code does the work on your own files. It's included in Claude Pro and runs in the Claude desktop app, not just a black terminal.
Checked on 15 Oct 2026. Tools change fast, so the official page always wins if it says something different.
Step by step
Open the Claude desktop app
Sign in with your paid account. The app has three tabs: Chat, Cowork and Code.
Open the Code tab
That's Claude Code. You don't need the terminal.
Start with a copy of your files
Claude Code works on your real files. While you learn, give it a copy of a folder, so nothing important changes by mistake.
Try one real job
Pick one of these and ask in plain English:
Sort a messy folder of files.
Turn a spreadsheet into a report.
Build you a simple website.
Fix a bug you've been stuck on.
Sort the files in this folder into subfolders by type, then tell me what you moved.
Watch it work, then check
You can watch what it does while it works. Check the result before you rely on it.
