Scientists have discovered intelligent life inside a terminal. A developer in Basingstoke has reportedly talked to a computer — and the computer talked back. The Archbishop of Canterbury has declined to comment.

In tonight's programme, Pippa Stacktrace reports live from a windswept promenade in Whitby on the arrival of Claude Code — Anthropic's agentic coding tool that lives in your terminal, reads your entire codebase, and actually does things. Professor Fiddlesticks demonstrates a one-command installation (and brings a ship in a bottle for reasons he insists are essential). Kevin asks if there's a free version. There is not.

You'll learn how to install Claude Code, authenticate, choose between Sonnet and Opus, and send your first prompt — all wrapped in the gravitas of a BBC news bulletin about absolutely none of this warranting that level of gravitas.

The seagull behind Pippa is entirely unrelated.
