Scheduled Tasks — Claude Code keeps working while you sleep
Claude Code can now run prompts on a schedule — from quick polling in a session to fully autonomous cloud tasks that run while your laptop is closed. Three scheduling options, one goal: automate the work you keep forgetting to do.
Claude Opus 4.6 — what the best AI model means for your .NET code
Opus 4.6 is now the default model in Claude Code. With 1M tokens of context and an 80.8% SWE-bench score, it’s the biggest single-generation jump yet. Here’s what changes for .NET developers.
Auto Mode — the end of approve, approve, approve
Every Claude Code user knows the drill: approve the file edit, approve the build command, approve the test run. Auto Mode replaces that click-fest with a background safety classifier — so you can actually focus on building.
Git worktrees with Claude Code — work on multiple features without losing context
You’re deep in a feature branch. An urgent bug comes in. Instead of stashing, switching, and losing your flow — you open a second directory and keep going. Git worktrees make this possible, and Claude Code makes it powerful.
From code writer to software architect — how AI changes your role
I write less code than ever. And yet I’m more productive. The question is no longer ‘how do I implement this?’ but ‘what should be built here and why?’
Multiple Claude Code sessions at once — parallel development on your .NET solution
One Claude Code session is powerful. Two or three running simultaneously, each focused on a different part of your solution? That’s a multiplier.
Building sub-agents for your .NET workflow
Claude Code is powerful on its own. But when you split the work across specialized sub-agents — a test writer, a reviewer, a documentation agent — it becomes a team.
Claude Code and your .NET solution structure — managing context smartly
Your .NET solution has 15 projects, hundreds of files, and a mountain of generated code. Claude Code’s context window isn’t infinite. Here’s how you work smartly.
Claude Code as code reviewer for your .NET pull requests
Claude Code can do a thorough first pass on your .NET pull requests — catching null references, missing validation, and inconsistent patterns before a human reviewer even opens the PR.
Claude Code skills and plugins for .NET — discovering the marketplace
Claude Code out of the box is powerful. With skills and plugins, it becomes a .NET specialist that knows your patterns, frameworks, and conventions.
