Summary

Hide ▲

Anthropic's Claude Code Security entered research preview, adding vulnerability scanning and patch suggestions inside Claude Code for developers reviewing code before release. The tool ranks findings by priority level and keeps human review in the loop before any patch is shipped. The launch matters because it moves security checks closer to code creation, but it remains an early-stage capability rather than a full replacement for broader AppSec tooling.
