Claude Code can now control your screen — opening apps, clicking through UI, taking screenshots. No Playwright setup, no test harness. Just tell Claude what to check and watch it work. Here’s how Computer Use works and why it matters for .NET developers.
Claude Code can now run prompts on a schedule — from quick polling in a session to fully autonomous cloud tasks that run while your laptop is closed. Three scheduling options, one goal: automate the work you keep forgetting to do.
Opus 4.6 is now the default model in Claude Code. With 1M tokens of context and an 80.8% SWE-bench score, it’s the biggest single-generation jump yet. Here’s what changes for .NET developers.
Every Claude Code user knows the drill: approve the file edit, approve the build command, approve the test run. Auto Mode replaces that click-fest with a background safety classifier — so you can actually focus on building.
You’re deep in a feature branch. An urgent bug comes in. Instead of stashing, switching, and losing your flow — you open a second directory and keep going. Git worktrees make this possible, and Claude Code makes it powerful.
One Claude Code session is powerful. Two or three running simultaneously, each focused on a different part of your solution? That’s a multiplier.
Claude Code is powerful on its own. But when you split the work across specialized sub-agents — a test writer, a reviewer, a documentation agent — it becomes a team.
Your .NET solution has 15 projects, hundreds of files, and a mountain of generated code. Claude Code’s context window isn’t infinite. Here’s how you work smartly.
Claude Code can do a thorough first pass on your .NET pull requests — catching null references, missing validation, and inconsistent patterns before a human reviewer even opens the PR.
Claude Code out of the box is powerful. With skills and plugins, it becomes a .NET specialist that knows your patterns, frameworks, and conventions.
