# Claude Code Agent Bridge

Delegate complex multi-file coding tasks, refactoring, and code review to Anthropic Claude Code CLI. Claude Code has deep IDE integration and can make targeted edits across an entire codebase.

## When to Use

- Task requires deep multi-file refactoring beyond a single script

- User wants an expert code review with inline suggestions

- Task requires reading, understanding, and rewriting large codebases

- User wants to pair-program with an AI that can navigate projects

- Task requires complex TypeScript/Python/Rust code generation

## How to Use

### 1. Install Claude Code

```powershell

# Requires Node.js 18+

npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code

# Verify installation

claude --version

# Authenticate (requires Anthropic API key)

$env:ANTHROPIC_API_KEY = "sk-ant-..."

```

### 2. Run Claude Code on a task

```powershell

# Navigate to the project

Set-Location "C:\Users\shiva\myproject"

# Run with a specific task

claude "Refactor the authentication module to use JWT tokens instead of sessions"

```

### 3. Non-interactive (headless) mode

```powershell

# Run a specific task non-interactively (for automation)

claude --print "Review the function in src/utils.ts and suggest improvements"

# Pipe output to a file

claude --print "Generate TypeScript interfaces for this JSON schema" | Out-File types.ts

```

### 4. Run Claude Code on a specific file

```powershell

# Ask Claude to work on a specific file

claude "Fix all TypeScript type errors in src/components/Dashboard.tsx"

# With additional context

claude "The function processPayment in src/payments.ts fails when amount is 0. Fix it."

```

### 5. Run in print mode to get a response without editing files

```powershell

# Get a code review without applying changes

$review = claude --print "Review src/api.ts for security vulnerabilities and anti-patterns"

Write-Host $review

```

### 6. Delegate a complex refactoring task

```powershell

# Multi-step task with context

$task = @"

Refactor the codebase to:

1. Extract all database queries from controllers into a repository layer

2. Add TypeScript types for all repository methods

3. Update all tests to use the new repository interfaces

"@

claude $task

```

### 7. Run on a different directory

```powershell

claude --directory "C:\Users\shiva\other-project" "Add error handling to all async functions"

```

## Examples

**"Refactor my Express API to use async/await everywhere"**

→ Navigate to the project directory and use step 2: `claude "Refactor all callback-based Express route handlers to use async/await with proper error handling"`.

**"Review my authentication code for security issues"**

→ Use step 5 with `--print` to get a review without applying changes.

**"Generate TypeScript interfaces for my API response types"**

→ Use step 3 in headless mode, pipe output to a types file.

## Cautions

- Claude Code applies edits directly to files — review changes with `git diff` after each session

- `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` must be set — Claude Code bills against the Anthropic API

- Headless mode (`--print`) does not apply changes — it only returns text

- For large codebases, scope the task to a specific module or file to avoid context overflow

- Always commit or stash changes before running Claude Code on a large task, so you can revert if needed
