"I started by using Claude Code inside Apple's Code Intelligence feature of Xcode, but found Code Intelligence to be buggy. It crashed or hung fairly consistently. I confirmed that it was Code Intelligence, not Claude Code, causing the issues, because when I tried using OpenAI's Codex in Code Intelligence, I encountered the same buggy behavior.

"You will need to sign up for the or the (starting at $100/month). I recommend starting with the Pro plan. After about five hours, if you decide you like Claude Code, you'll have to move to the Max plan, but it's fairly easy to do. I've found that you get a lot of mileage from the Max plan. I've been using it extensively this month, and it hasn't cut me off yet."
Claude Code runs reliably when installed and executed from the terminal and can integrate with Xcode after proper configuration. Apple's Code Intelligence in Xcode can be unstable, crashing or hanging and causing issues unrelated to Claude Code. Command-line setup produces a fast, stable agentic development workflow. Projects are scoped by directory, so repository placement and setup location directly affect behavior and tooling integration. Sustained agentic coding requires a paid plan (Pro or Max); the Max plan delivers extensive usage and is priced about $100/month less than competing services that start at $200/month. A GitHub connection is required for repository access.
