Cloud sessions are officially available and out of research preview! They let you keep Claude Code working, even when your laptop is closed.

Cloud Sessions allow you to run Claude Code on Anthropic's infrastructure, rather than directly on your computer. This allows the AI agent to continue working on the code even if the user closes their laptop or their computer is no longer connected to the network.
You can start such a session via claude.ai/code, the Code tab in the Claude mobile app, the desktop app, or the claude --cloud command in the terminal. To get started, you need to connect to GitHub.
The bonus is given once per account. You can claim it until October 7th using the link or the /claim-credit command in Claude Code CLI.
Earlier, dev.ua wrote that Anthropic introduced Claude Opus 5.5 — a new flagship AI model for programming, automation, and analytics. The company claims that it works faster than its predecessor, requires less computing resources, and costs about 40% less to use than Opus 5.
