Your terminal just got a senior developer.
Claude Code is not another chat window with a code-completion plugin. It's an agentic CLI tool that reads your codebase, edits across multiple files, runs your tests, executes shell commands, talks to your databases through MCP servers, and ships features while you watch.
But most developers are still using it like a fancier autocomplete.
Claude Code: The Power User Guide is the practical, hands-on book for developers who want to make Claude Code an integral part of how they ship software - not a novelty they reach for once a week.
What's inside:
- Set up correctly. Installation on macOS, Linux, and Windows (WSL). API key vs. Claude Max/Pro auth. The CLAUDE.md system at the project, user, and directory level. VS Code and JetBrains integrations. The permission model.
- Master the core workflows. Code generation that respects your conventions, multi-file refactoring, debugging across layers, test generation, and documenting undocumented codebases - each chapter ends with a real-world workflow.
- Work at scale. Strategies for monorepos and large codebases, the /compact command, coordinated multi-file operations, migrations (e.g., JavaScript to TypeScript), and adding cross-cutting concerns like auth or observability across an entire application.
- Customize and integrate. Hooks for pre-tool and post-tool automation, MCP servers (GitHub, PostgreSQL, Slack, custom), the Claude Agent SDK for building your own agents, and IDE integration patterns.
- Apply it to real work. Frontend (React/Vue/Angular), backend (APIs, schemas, auth, jobs), DevOps (Docker, CI/CD, Terraform, Kubernetes), and onboarding to an existing codebase - including the legacy Rails app nobody wants to touch.
- Operate safely. The permission model in depth, sandboxing, .env and credential handling, code review for AI-generated code, cost management with /cost, team CLAUDE.md conventions, and enterprise security considerations.
- CLAUDE.md templates for web apps, mobile apps, CLI tools, libraries, monorepos, and data pipelines - each with project overview, architecture, conventions, and common-task scaffolding.
If you've installed Claude Code, run a few commands, and wondered what you're missing - this is the missing manual.
Includes coverage of Claude Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 in Claude Code, the CLAUDE.md system, hooks, MCP, the Agent SDK, IDE extensions, and every 2026 power-user capability.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
