Apple puts Claude agents straight inside Xcode
Anthropic just announced that Apple's Xcode 26.3 natively integrates the Claude Agent SDK, bringing full Claude Code capabilities directly into the IDE. Instead of just answering turn-by-turn prompts, Claude can now execute autonomous coding tasks, explore whole project files, and inspect Xcode Previews to visually verify UI code. It is currently out as a Release Candidate for Apple Developer Program members.
