Show HN: Claude Code for Visual Studio (native diff with accept/reject)
A community-developed extension for Visual Studio 2026, named Claude Code, has been released to provide native IDE integration for Anthropic's Claude Code CLI. This extension bridges the gap for Visual Studio users, offering features like a native diff window with accept/reject functionality, automatic context selection, and compiler diagnostics integration. It operates by launching the Claude Code CLI and communicating with it via a local WebSocket server, enabling a more seamless coding experience without direct model calls from the extension itself.
