Summary
A hands-on account of Claude Code for web, Anthropic’s hosted asynchronous coding agent, written from preview access. The author judges the product’s output indistinguishable from the local CLI’s and its value to be convenience rather than capability, and argues the launch’s real significance is the sandboxing strategy it was announced inside — filesystem and network isolation, with network isolation via an out-of-sandbox proxy presented as the way to remove the exfiltration leg of a lethal-trifecta attack.
