Code Walkthrough

About

Facilitates interactive code reviews and explanations by synchronizing Claude's output with the user's local development environment. It allows Claude to open specific files at designated line numbers in popular editors like VSCode, PyCharm, IntelliJ, Zed, and Vim, ensuring a seamless follow-along experience. This is particularly useful for explaining complex logic, reviewing recent modifications, or onboarding developers to a new codebase in a step-by-step, interactive manner that requires user confirmation before proceeding to the next file or section.
