Anthropic's terminal agent: reads the repo, edits files, runs the tests it just broke.

Teams that need a GUI approval flow for every edit; this is a terminal loop with hooks, not a review product
A command-line agent that works inside your repository: it reads files, plans a change, edits, and runs commands while showing the tool calls it makes. The design assumption is that a developer is watching the diff, so approval is per action rather than per task. Long sessions are the point — it keeps repository context between turns instead of re-reading from scratch.
