Claude Code (and its open-source sibling Claw Code) is an agentic AI coding assistant that lives in your terminal. It can read files, write code, run commands, search the web, and orchestrate complex multi-step tasks — all while managing context, permissions, and tool execution autonomously.

This repository is a visual architecture guide. No code. Just diagrams, explanations, and deep dives into every subsystem that makes the magic happen.
