Claude Code has been updated again. Recently, Claude has been updating almost daily. Today, Claude Code and Claude App have launched Learning mode, and it feels like Claude Code is developing into an all-purpose Agent.
First, let's talk about Claude Code: It now supports using /output-style to customize communication styles. Output styles allow you to adjust Claude Code into any type of Agent to match your workflow while retaining its core capabilities (running local scripts, reading/writing files, maintaining TODOs).
This update features two main styles designed to help students and developers enhance their skills:
Explanatory - Claude will lay out its thought process, explaining why it designs things a certain way, what trade-offs exist, what best practices are, teaching the craft while writing code.
Learning - More like a pair programming mentor. Claude will pause from time to time, leaving parts of tasks for you to write, then provide guidance and feedback - learning by doing.
