So, before moving forward, here's a quick quiz question for you and the question is what is Claude Code AI primarily used for? And your options are option A generating images, option B performing voice recognition, option C understanding and generating humanlike text or the option D managing databases. Let me know your answers in the comment section below and let's see who will give the right answer first. So let's deep dive into the magic of cloud code and by the end of this course you will not only understand its power but you will also have the skills to unleash it in in your own projects. Are you ready to take your AI journey to the next level? So let's get started. So let's first understand what is claude code actually is. So basically claude code is a tool that allows you to create AI applications by simply describing what you want to build in plain English. You don't need to know how to code. The tool will translate your descriptions into working code making it easy to build AIdriven solutions quickly. So we can also give a tagline to claude code which is code made simple or we can say code made super simple. So basically claude code is a part of claude AI and it needs a subscription to work on. If we will use a free version of claude AI then claude code would not get the access. So we need to check the subscription first. So let me show it to you. So here I have opened the claude pricing page and you can see that here we have three plans. a free plan, a pro plan, and a max plan. So free plan obviously cost you $0, but here [snorts] you will not get the access to cla code. But pro plans include the clot code. Here you can see and it will cost you around $17 monthly. Now I would suggest that if you are just looking to mess around with this, get the cheapest plan for your clot. And the cheapest plan is pro plan. And if you will use the free plan then you will get out of credits very quickly because if you will work on a heavy project it will not work for you. So I highly recommend using pro plan which has the sufficient number of credits which will help you perform your demos your projects uh very comfortably and I will recommend you to use max plan only when you are familiar with all the clot features and once you are comfortable then switch to max plan before that I'll highly recommend you to check only the pro plan so now I will recommend you to open any of the terminal either windows powershell Or you can even open uh like terminal or command prompt depending upon your system. But if you are using Windows, I'll highly recommend you opening PowerShell. Windows PowerShell. Here you will find Windows PowerShell. See the window has pop up. Now we need to install the cloud first into our system. Now to install clot code into your system, you need to go to this docs claude code official docs website. Here when you will scroll down you will see different commands that you can use for Mac OS, Linux or your Windows PowerShell. So whatever command prompt or environment you are using you need to install that short code using that particular command only. So for example if you are using Mac OS then copy paste this command in your terminal. If you are using Windows PowerShell that is highly recommended then you need to copy paste this to install cloud in your device and in case of command prompt you need to copy paste this. So as of now I'm copy pasting this command here we can paste this and we can paste enter so that cloud is successfully installed in our device. Just wait for a while and the cloud code is being setting up and it is successfully installed in our device. Now just to check whether it is installed successfully or not, you just need to write claud in your terminal. This will verify if it is successfully installed or not. See this window has been popped up. It means it is being successfully installed in our device. Now I have something other thing to show you up which is the cloud code desktop version. So just to get started with the desktop app of cloud code you can like visit its official website from here. You can download it for Mac OS or for Windows. So if you are you using Windows, you can download it from here. So basically the desktop app of cloud code has three tabs. First is chat. Other one is co-work and code. So basically the chat version when you will download you will see a chat version on cloud code that is the desktop app. So basically the chat version of desktop is just a general conversation with no file access similar to claude AI where if we work uh talk about co-work then it is basically an autonomous background agent that works on task in a cloud VM with its own environment and lastly is code which is used for interactive coding. So I highly recommend you once you get familiar with the basic features of claude you go and download the desktop version that will be more sufficient and more beginner friendly and more efficient for you to work with your code. So here in the beginning we are just looking at the dependencies. I know we need to install a lot of thing to get the cloud code working super perfectly in your system. It might be intimidating in the start but trust me once you'll figure out everything then cloud code is the super fun thing to work on. It will automate all your task and you do not have to code manually everything. So initially you need to give time and follow along follow along with me and download all the dependencies that are really required to work with cloud. So next thing we need to download is git. So make sure the git is installed properly in your device and if you don't know how to install git in your computer you can simply give the prompt to claude code that please install git in the computer. If you already have the git in your system it will show you and if not then it will automatically gives you the command that will help you to install git. follow along and then install as shown here in the system or else you can also visit the official website which I'll show you right now. Just click on the official website of git and you can directly install for windows from here. So basically git is a tool that's going to allow you to essentially kind of checkpoint what claude is doing and revert back to a previous version of your codebase in case it makes any mistakes. you won't have to be like uh so basically you won't be having it in your device like automatically or by default. So just you have the two options and download it successfully in your system. Now the next thing is I highly recommend you creating a GitHub account for your system that you can I hope you must have been created like previously you must have a a GitHub account but not then again you can visit the official website of git from here like type GitHub and click here sign up for GitHub if you have the account you can login and if you don't have you can sign up I already had the account so this page has been popped up. So the reason why I'm telling you to create one is that in so here we are going to connect our clot to GitHub so that it is able to actually create new repositories for us and save all the code that we are writing from the very beginning so that we don't lose anything. So you know about GitHub it is essentially a website or a kind of a remote location where we can store different code. So rather than just having it in on our computer, we can store it with GitHub where we can access it from another machine. We can share it with another developer. And more importantly, if we lose access to maybe our own computer or maybe we delete the folder or Claude messes up with something, we can always get the repository or the code again by going to this website. So go to GitHub, make the account, it is completely free. Now we need to connect our clot with the GitHub account. So need not worry just whatever the problem you are facing whatever the solution you want give the prompt to claude code and it will do it for you. Just now we want to connect it. So just I'm typing here. Let's suppose I'll type here I want to connect my GitHub account to my cloud account. So please connect it for me and it will automatically connect it for you. Now rather than just using the terminal here a lot of times you are going to use it with any of the development environment what I mean to say is like you can use any of the development environment like VS code cursor or jet brains ID. So you can actually see what claude code is doing and not just having this terminal view. So for example a very popular editor is visual studio code. So I'm going to write every command what I want claude to work on in the visual studio code. You can even download cursor which is one of the most like advanced tool just related to visual studio but more advanced it is connected to AI and it has some advanced features. So basically you can visit the official website of kersonen and easily download it from there. But as of now I'm using visual studio code for my project. So this is my visual studio code window and here I will create a new folder where our coding projects will live. So go here file open folder and let's see I'll create a new folder naming as claude code project. You can name anything as per your wish and I can select the folder and now it is being opened into our visual studio code editor. Here we can take this yes I trust the authors. See here the project has been created. Now here all our files will live. So now this is our terminal here just to verify whether the claude was installed we will write claude here or we can say just to go into claude we have to write claud here. So here it is asking the permission from us. So I'm typing yes I trust this folder. So now we are into cloud. See you know before clock like let's suppose we want to create a tic-tac-to game. So we had to write lots of code HTML file CSS and lot and lot of thinking behind it logic behind it. But using claude it has been very simple. We just can give a simple prompt to this claude AI and like let's suppose we'll give please make a tic-tac-toe game for us. You need not do anything. Just press enter and claude will work for you. I'll show you how and you will be amazed to see the results that this is how our coding is being automated using this powerful software. So let me give the prompt like this. Make a to game that I can run on web. And I have pressed enter it and it has started. It's working. Meanwhile, we can see how much time it is taking to create a game and how much tokens it is utilizing. So, as of now, it has utilized 126 tokens as you can see on screen. So, let's wait till the output comes on the screen to us. Can you see on the screen what used to write or take hours for us before clot like we used to invest our precious time writing the style body container everything it has written automatically the whole code is in front of you and you have just given a prompt that's it here you can make the updations according to your own choice how you want the styling the margins or the heading color, font size and so on. But the base code has been generated for you. So it is asking me do you want to make this edit to tic tac to html. So let's see I give yes. It has started its functioning again. So now your game is being prepared already and the features it includes are as follows. two-player mode, versus AI mode, score tracking, winning highlights, and you can even start the new game, reset the scores. So, the game is all set, and we can open this file, which is tic-tac-toe.html in any browser to play. And I am giving the command. I don't want to do anything. I just want clot to work for me. So, I'm giving the command as open this file which is tic tacto.tml table in any of the browser for me I'll not do this even and I have pressed enter do you want to proceed and I want to say yes and let's see our game is all set and is being displayed on our screen no hard work nothing just the power of giving a right prompt so I think you must know how to play a tic tactoe game you can play with any of your friends your colleagues your parents and enjoy You can even reset the scores from here. You can start a new game from here. So this is insane. Just one line of code and the whole game is ready. And as I have told you earlier, you can make the changes in the game according to your own requirement just by editing this HTML file. Also, one of the most amazing features of this is you can run claude into two different windows. If one window of yours is performing some task simultaneously you can perform another task like creating another game in the another window just by clicking on this press symbol and then you'll be opening to a new terminal. So but it is an advanced feature and we are right now covering beginner friendly features. So I'm not going deep into it but just showing that you can simultaneously work on two different files. So basically if you don't know something you can directly ask claude to do it for you or else you can type /help enter and this will give you all the general kind of shortcuts or list of commands you think and you want to use just like toggle here in general you can go into general you can go into command where you can like use the down arrow key and see the different commands like hash Clear helps you start with a new session. What does hash color do? It sets the prompt bar color. What compact does? What config? So whatever command you want to test or you want to know what that actually does, you can directly type hyphen help and everything will be visible to you on your screen. And if you want to get out of it, you can directly click escape and you will be get out of this help command. You can see help dialogue is being dismissed. Now another topic we'll cover is different types of mode we can use into clot or different types of mode that are actually present in clot. So the default mode is code mode. You don't need to do anything. Whatever you are writing here you are writing in the default mode that is code mode. And also before we go forward, you can even use this question mark symbol for the shortcuts. If you want to know how many shortcuts are present or what shortcut can be used, you can directly type this and you will find different shortcuts. Like if you want to go into bash mode, you can use explanatory slash for commands, add the rate for file path and the end symbol for background and so on. So it is so simple. So we were talking about different modes. So we have covered the code mode. And if you want to change the mode, let's suppose I want to work on a planning mode. I will get into this mode. But let's first understand how we can change the different modes. So for this you just need to press shift plus tab and it will get you into different modes. Right now we are into plan mode because it is visible here like plan mode is on and if you want to cycle along with different modes present here we can directly press this shift tab and this works into accept mode edit mode and we are again into plan mode and code mode is the default mode. So let's first understand about the plan mode which is one of the most important modes in cloud code. Let's suppose you typed anything by mistake uh like anything. So to get out of it, you just need to press escape two times and it will all be erased. If you want to erase anything by mistake, you can like double press the escape and it will be done. And if you want to go and check what I typed earlier like without writing everything manually again and again you can just toggle between this upper arrow in your keyboard and the down arrow. It will show you all the commands that you have used earlier and you can directly enter this rather than typing everything manually. So this is another very important features and helpful features of cloud code. One more thing I want to cover. Let's suppose we want a line break or we want to go into a different line. If we press enter, the command will be submitted to the editor. But we don't want this. We want to go into a separate line. So just write something hello. And to go down you just need to press just press alt plus enter and it will take you to the different line or to the next line. Let's suppose hello world. So yeah, this is also one of the features and one of the thing you should know in the beginner level because I am making this tutorial considering that you can cover everything from the basics. So let's basically understand the planning mode now. So the most important part about AI coding is actually knowing what you exactly want. If you don't know what you want and you let the agent steer you, you are going to get horrible and crazy results take you forever to debug and change. But what if you are very clear and specific on what you want and you have to do all one small task at that time, give the exact prompt and you will get fantastic results and create amazing stuff. Trust me, you don't need to do anything. You just need to write down your thoughts into claude and it will automatically come up with your idea. So you can use whisper flow just it is used as a audio whatever you say it listens and type here. But as of now I'm writing the prompt like what I actually want just I want to type my thoughts and it will work for me. So this is the prompt I have given. I want to create a simple top-down shooter game that is runnable in the browser. I want to have some sprites or at least cool kind of like character animation. I want my characters to have a gun. I want enemies to kind of be coming at me from different angles. I want to be able to move with the arrow keys and then use my mouse to kind of off point and click at different enemies and shoot them. We should have levels. We should have progressed clearly. We should have a menu screen and we should keep it relatively simple and kind of like a 2D retro style. So you can see here I have described everything how I want my future game to be. So just I have given the prompt and I'll press enter or we can even say like create a plan for me for this game and then start coding for me. We can give this prompt or we can even press enter. But let me give it. So I'm writing create a plan for me as if it will be automatically creating a plan because we are already into a plan mode and start coding and press enter. It has started its work. We can see how many tokens it is utilizing, how much time it will take. Let's wait for it. Let's wait for the amazing output. Now it is designing top-down shooter game architecture for us and up till now it has utilized 2.3k tokens. It may take some time. You need to wait just for the output. Now you can see the design is ready but the claude is writing the final plan for us. You need to wait for the amazing output. Here you can see it has utilized 9.5 6 7 8K tokens. So investing $17 per month is not that great deal because it is going to like ease your work like anything. You can build many amazing projects just by giving a simple prompt and you can earn dollars by this website like 10x dollars what you have invested. So it is worth investing at least into the pro plan. So after a long break the output is here and it has created the complete plan for us. See how the layout will be shown the screens whatever we have given into the prompt. It has taken care of all these like game over, victory, level complete, how the game will loop, what will happen if some collision occurs and then the verification and it has given us that open shooter. HTML in your browser and enjoy playing. So it is asking us the plan is ready. Do you want to execute? Yes. I pressed enter. Now our plan is approved and it is building the game for us according to that plan. It has asked us because we can give the changes as well that according to our requirement we want this we want dinies to look like this. That's why it is asking us everything and then presenting the final output according to our requirement whatever prompts we have given. Let's wait for this amazing game. You will also notice here that it has automatically shifted into accept edits mode from planning to accept edits. So you can see on the screen it has written the entire code for us whatever we want and now it is asking whether it is approved or not. Do you want to proceed and I'll say yes. Now our game is ready and we can easily open it in our browser and it has explained us what is in the game like five levels, three waves, pixel art, three enemies type, screen shake, synthesized retro sound effects, menu screen and everything. So we have opened it in our browser and let's see how amazing it is. See from all the arrows we can like side down and by clicking this space we can click. This is seriously amazing. I want to win this game. So okay the game is over unfortunately. So have you seen just writing a prompt of exactly what you want. The plan is prepared and the game is on the screen. Your thoughts given to Claude and Claude has done everything for you. And as I changes according to your requirement and then pass the approval that now everything is perfect sorted. You can create the game. Now we will see how we can change the models. So basically there are three types of models in plot code. So let me type here model. Click enter. And here you can see we have the three models which is default which is best for everyday task. Then the second model is opus which is suitable for more complex work and then there is haiku which is fastest for quick answers. So by default we are at the default model which is highly recommended and if you want to get out of this model you can like click escape. So this was just for your information like how many models does this claude code AI supports. So one of the most important thing I want to remind you again that if you are going to be working on a large project I highly recommend you or instruct you to connect your clot code to GitHub repository and make the commits and save all the changes that it's making. So if you are facing any difficulty in connecting both of them just type to claude here only and it will give you the instructions. Follow along and you will be sorted. I've already done it in my case so I'm skipping this part. You can directly ask your clot and it will give you the instructions and the prompts. Just follow along. I am telling you to push your code into GitHub so that we always have a saved version of the project and it is easy for us to revert back in case we make any changes. So set up your GitHub repository, configure everything and just use git and GitHub for rest of your project. Don't skip this part or else you will regret later. Now we will understand something called memory. Let's suppose I'm exiting from the claude. Now like this session I pressed hyphen exit and let us exit from this. Again go into claude by typing claude. Here we are again here and we give the prompt here. What did you do last? Let's suppose we are asking it. See, no memory has been saved from previous sessions. So I have no record of past work. So that's an important thing to understand about clawed sessions is that you don't have the kind of unlimited memory like other apps or tools. And that's why we are going to talk about another important features of claude AI which is claude MD file. Now claude MD file is something that will allow you to have a persistent memory. So whatever we do in previous session, it is automatically saved in that particular file. So now we need to create the MD file and for this we will type the command as hyphen i nit. And you can even read this instruction that this particular command helps you initialize a new cloud MD file with your codebase doc. Press enter here and it will create a clot.m MD file for you and now everything will be added in that file. So that if even if you come out of the session you have the memory saved. Let's wait for it. So it is asking do you want to make this edit to claude MD? Of course yes. Now we can ask what we did in our project just to check its memory. See, it has gone back to the claw MD file and took out everything both the tic tacto game and our shooter game. Everything it has displayed here. So another important concept we learned is memory. Now let's talk about tasks. So let me type here T A S KS tasks. So this particular command will give us all the background task it is running and as of now no background task has been running on our system. So if you want to go back or escape from so if you want to get out of this we can easily do it by pressing escape. And if something is running in background, let's suppose some task is running running in background, then we can kill that task by pressing K K on your keyboard and it will kill that particular task. And why you must be wondering why we want to kill the background task. So background task are typically going to be the things like web servers that are running continuously and that you don't want to block the execution of your cloud code instance. So you don't want to mess up with the things or your actual task get affected or interrupted. So you prefer killing that extra task. Now let's look at the other features. So we are talking about agents. Let me type here agents. So basically you can create agent and these agent can perform special task and you can delegate task to them. So for an example you could have an agent that is handling doing a styling or like changing the user interface. An agent is responsible for the back end. In simple terms you can delegate the task between agents. So it would be more systematically worked and the output would be more clear and more specific. So you can create as many as agents you want. Now another command that is / MCP. It is clearly written here MCP manage MCP servers. So let's suppose you want to connect your clot to notion Gmail or Google then you can easily do it with this MCT servers and you can simply press this hyphen this slash to check all the commands we are having in cloud code like init code review add directory advisor agents autofix branch. So you can get the description here only and you can perform the task as you want according to your project requirement. If you want to start a new session, you can clearly write clear, color, compact and even the config if you want to open the config panel. So take your time and explore all these commands. Of course I cannot cover all these command in this tutorial but I am telling you that these many features you are having here exit fast and so on so on. So as much as you will practice you will become more pro in this code. Now I want to explain you about one of the most important commands that is skills. Let me type here skills. So basically I had created a code review skill which is already on. You might be confused like what skills is now. So basically you can actually create skills that are essentially repeatable tasks that claude does all of the time. You can take it or understand it like just like functions. We have functions in our programming language, right? where we create a function for all the the task which we can reuse later if the code wants like we don't want to write the entire code again we can just invoke that function just like skills are if we want that code to perform a particular task again and again for different projects we can directly invoke the skill and then it will be sorted we don't need to give the prompt again again. So rather than creating an agent, you can create a skill and then you can run a particular skill just by saying something like whatever you need or you can even give the prompt hey you know that I have given you a skill where I have taught you to do this. So it will go look up to that skill and then be able to run it continuously. So you can see how powerful this can be to just [clears throat] get you really do what you want by not repeatedly doing the tasks. I will explain you how you can create skills later on. As of now let's look at other commands. Next we have insights command. Let me type here insights. So this command basically generate the report analyzing our cloud code session. Let me click here. So basically a report that will show you how to use cloud code. Talk to you about mistakes that you are making, things that you are doing well, where cloud code is working for you, where it's not working for you, and generate a full web page with all of the results. So let's wait for it. It's cooking. So it has generated the report for me in report.html file. And this is your sharable insights. You can share this file to anybody. You can visit your default browser and you can see the entire report it has generated for you. Now without wasting any more time, let's go into another command that is cost command. I'm just showing the important commands to you. Other commands you can p you can practice on your own. So if you are running on some kind of API or paid version, you can run this and see how much it is costing to you. So because I'm using a paid subscription here which I have told you earlier in the beginner that is why it is showing your subscription to your power cloud code usage is as follows and it has given me the exact breakdown. Now the next command that is context and press enter. This particular command will show you all of the things that are being used in your current context and give you a kind of what percentage of them are from what different sources are from there. See it has given me the context usage. The total number of tokens we have utilized here which is 200k. Estimated usage by category like by category how many tokens we have utilized and what all MCP tools we have used here. Skills we have utilized which I have shown you like code review. Here is we have seen different MCP servers loaded here. Here you will notice that depending on what MCP provider you are using or how you set up MCP, you may have a ton of tools here that are being loaded and you just don't need that. It is just utilizing your memory space. So I would highly recommend disabling tools that you are not using in a particular session because that will save you a lot on the context and also just make cloud code a little bit faster and easier to run because it's not going to be searching through a ton of tools that you are just not actively using. So this will make your system much more faster and that is why it is one of the most potential features of cloud code. Now let's look at the other command which is compact. Let's press enter. So this particular command is going to clear the current history that you have to keep a summary of that is in the context. So if you are getting near to the context window or you just don't want to be as expensive because the context window is quite large you can compact this. Again, what it will do is summarize the current conversation and include a small amount of tokens in the session so that you can keep going with the same session without losing everything. So basically compact is not always the best strategy but it's just a command that you should be aware of. It is just kind of a command basically. So these were some of the basic commands we have discussed. Now I want to explain you MCP servers in details even the skills. So you can add MCP servers at different levels like you can add them at project level, at a user level or even at a global level. So just be aware of when you are adding these and the scopes in which you are creating these different tools because if you want it to be a global for example but you don't add it in the project then you won't see it in the other cla code sessions. The way this work is that claude is automatically going to create a folder called claude inside of the project where you are working with claude code. So make sure while using it. Now I just want to get out of the session. So I'll be pressing exit. And I basically want to show you how the skills actually work in this clot code environment. We will look about this skill in deep like we'll explain and we'll understand this uh very thoroughly with all the examples. So basically skills are learned behavior from clot. skills are not really actions that Claude code is taking or like a tool that it's calling. It's more so a behavior that it's learning how to do and it's documenting itself. All that a skill is really just a markdown file. And a markdown file is just a fancy formatted text file that explains to a step-by-step process that it should follow. So basically when people start talking about skills what they're saying is let's suppose we are saying this to our terminal hey we have this workflow or this repeatable thing to do. So rather than just prompting claude explaining to it over and over again, what we can do is we can wrap that kind of workflow or a repeatable task in a skill which is effectively just a file and then when we want to do something in the future, we can just reference that skill and clot code will execute that for us. So that's basically a skill is and it will be useful when you actually use them inside of a project to do something repeatable just like we do in functions when we talk about programming languages. Let me explain it to you with an example. Let's suppose if you are always changing some line in a file whenever something updates or maybe that's a skill that you create for the clot. If you want to review the code in a certain way where you are looking for maybe things that claude doesn't do by default, then you can create a code review skill and then you can point it out to do the certain task. So now I just want to show you how we can create our own custom skills in Visual Studio Code and how we can use it and invoke it in our project. Let's suppose I'm giving a prompt like this a basic prompt review this code and I'm pressing enter. Let's see what it gets. So I have given it a code review skill previously. So it is like analyzing that skill and according to that skill it is reviewing our project file. I'll show you how you can create your custom skill. Just showing you the example right now that I have already created an skill. See here it has generated everything so systematically the way we want the code quality, performance, error handling, suggestions, everything so perfect because we have given it the skill and it is now taking that skill and performing the task for us. Need not do it repeatedly. Claude will do it for us. And now if you want to create the skill, you do not need to do some fancy stuff. You just need to give your prompt to claude that please create a skill for me and it will do it for you. So I'm writing here is hey create a new code review skill for me and then I will give the prompt to the claude code. So I have given the prompt is hey claude create a new code review skill for me. Now we can explain it what we want the skill to be like what task it should perform. Now talking about the benefit is that you can actually have claude code make these skills completely for you and if you don't just give it enough detail on what you want then it will document the process and make the skill by default for you then you can run that particular skill and you can tell clot code to continuously improve the skill until you get it to the place where you are happy and satisfied enough. So here I'm going to paste a prompt which is just an example of what a skill should look like. So let me just copy paste the prompt. So I've copy pasted the prompt and it is asking me do you want to proceed and I'll say yes and it will create a perfect skill for me named as code review. A custom skill that has been designed according to my requirement and the project requirement. The best part is it takes the permission everything it executes before executing it takes the permission of us whether we are satisfied or not and we can make the changes before giving the final approval. So we have given the structure to be followed uh to our visual studio code and it has followed exactly the same and see the amazing output we have got. The skill is being created and now the clot code will work according to this skill. Whenever it is required, it will invoke this skill automatically. So let's test this code review skill by just coming out of this session by pressing exit. Then going back to skill and this particular command will show us the list available of all the skills we have created. And see we have created the code review skill and it is on like it is working for us in the background. Now we can even check this particular skill by typing /code review. So this is reviewing our two games that we have created in the same format we have given above. And now the result will be given to us in the perfectly right format. So now you should be creating a lot of different skills. Make them at a global level. If there is a skill that you want to be at the global level, then you can simply ask claude to put it into the global or the local level according to your requirement. So you can just give the prompt I want to move this particular skill to the global level and the task would be done. You can simply ask clot code to build the skill for you. Review it, read it, make sure you understand it and then adjust it as needed and you are going to get a lot better performance out of clot code. Trust me. Now, it is also worth noting down that claude can automatically invoke these skills for you. So while you can just run the commands to execute the skills, you don't need to you can just say something that would invoke the skill being used and claude code will automatically figure out that it needs to be called. Let's suppose we typed hey I'm doing a code review. This is how claude will work. It will say let me look at the skills I have. Oh, it will figure out if we have the review code review skill with us. So let's use that and then it will invoke it for you and you can see if it does right and it's the so this is how the entire scenario will work for you. Now deep dive and let me show you the advanced features of clot code which is the visual representation to work with clot code because right now we are directly inside of the terminal and it can be very difficult to actually see and understand what clot code is doing in the back end. So for this we are going to use advanced features of cloud code and that tool is known as nimbleist. So let me show you how Nimbleist actually look like. So you can go to your default browser and you can type nimbleist and you can visit its official website. So this is the homepage of Nimbleist website where we can download it for our device whether you are using Windows or Mac OS or Linux accordingly you can download. So basically it will give you a visual representation how cloud code is actually working in the back end not just the theory in the front end. Okay, we are giving commands and it is giving us the output but actually see what is happening inside or behind the backend system. So I highly recommend you to download this in your system and for every project you connect your project with this software and see the actual working of it. I've already downloaded it in my system. So I'll type nimblest here. So this is how the interface of this tool looks like where we have different features like we can see plans, bugs, tasks, ideas, automations and everything at one place. We can create the plan from here. We can add the agents from here. See here we can create new sessions. We can track the items. So this is really amazing and when you will work you will see how important this tool really is. And another thing to note down is it is specially designed to work with both of the codes whether it is claude code and codeex now and it is completely free. It is a open-source software. You can download it from its official website just like I showed you and you can just open any of the projects in this software and show how it actually works. So you can explore its docs file and you will have a complete idea about how we can connect our clot code with this software. Just another features I want to make you familiar with about this is you can have custom extensions in this. So what I actually had to do is you can just say build a custom extension. So I can view all of my documentation for my project. Then we can just put that directly into our clot code window and then Nimbleist actually builds its own extension. So this is also another cool feature of Nimbleist. And then the last thing that I have to mention is they also have a mobile phone app. So what you can do is you can actually monitor all of your sessions and interact with Nimbleist and your cloud code session through mobile itself. So you can directly download the app. Again it's all free opensource and that's the only reason I'm mentioning it to you guys. Please go check out and download it. It is crazy. Now moving forward I want to explain you about sub aents. the another cool feature of claude code. Now sub aents get confused quite frequently because there's a multiple ways that you can use sub aents within cloud code. Basically a sub agent is effectively just another AI agent that's running with its own context window outside of your main cloud code session. So right now I am in a session. Correct? So let's suppose I create a new session for cloud code. Now I can ask it to do something. That's fine. But I can also tell it to delegate a task to a sub agent or multiple sub aents. So I'm going to show you how we can do this. Now whenever I'll show you what it's going to happen is cloud code will create multiple different versions of itself effectively that have their own context and their own prompt or kind of a task they need to achieve and just go out there and achieve them. So that's the first thing that we are referring to when we talk about sub agents. It's like multiple little agents that you can sign up to break down a task, right? And you also can create custom sub agents and when you create a custom sub agent, you can give it a set of instructions that it always follows and you can reuse that agent multiple times. So again you can go to your main claude code terminal and you can tell it hey go use my code reviewer agent or you can say go use my GitHub agent or use my deployment agent and so on and it will invoke that particular agent and perform the task for you and in case if you don't do that cloud code creates the agent by itself I'm going to show you how we can do this we can just type agents then we can give the name as test writer agent Here we are creating our custom agent according to our requirement. And here I will give the prompt exactly what this agents need to perform. So I have pasted the prompt which shows what exactly this agent needs to perform. Everything I've mentioned here. So it has created a custom like sub agent for me. So so the main difference between agent and skills is that agents are more flexible. they are general and they are going to follow the system prompt and the kind of personas that you have given to them. Whereas a skill is typically a workflow that an agent might use. So you might have a lot of different skills but only one or two agents and to be very honest you don't really need to create your own custom sub aents because if clot needs one it usually better at creating its own custom sub aents than you would be doing it for that and you can tell clot to make the agent and just save it persistently if you want to. So it has intense features and I genuinely want you to go to the docs of cloud code and explore all the features by your own because I cannot complete or cover the entire features in one tutorial. Right? So I want you this is your homework. Go check the other features perform in your project and Excel in this cloud code. If you want I can attach this link in the description box below and you just need to go and perform all these commands listed here and as much as you will perform or practice you will get better into it. So don't waste your time start today. So that brings us to the end of this claude code full course. Today we covered a lot of the features from setup and installation to connecting claude with your code editor. understanding features like model selection, GitHub integration, memory task, MCP servers, skills, sub aents and even advanced features like Nimbleist. So if you stayed till the end, you now have very strong foundation to start exploring cloud code on your own. And the best part is cloud code is not just a tool to save your time. It is the tool that can completely change the way you build, think and work with code. So whether you are a beginner, a developer or someone exploring AI powered workflows, this is one of those tool that can genuinely level up your productivity. Now the next step is quite simple. Do not stop at just watching out this tutorial. Open the tool, start experimenting, try small projects, break things, fix them and learn by building because that is where the real confidence comes from. If you enjoyed this course and found it helpful, do let us know in the comment section below and also share what kind of projects you want to build using cloud code. I would genuinely love to know this. And if you want to build deeper skills in generative AI, machine learning and intelligent automation, then do check out the program link in the description box and in the pin comments. Thanks a lot for watching. Keep learning, keep building, and I'll see you in the next one.
