Summary

Claude Code for Desktop is Anthropic's cloud-based AI coding tool that runs in a container environment (a isolated computing space), accessible through native iPhone and Mac apps. The desktop app lets users see images that Claude is analyzing through a Read /path/to/image tool, providing visual previews of what the AI is working on in real time. The iPhone app currently lacks this image display feature, though the user has requested it.
