A developer created ccunpacked.dev, an interactive visual guide to the leaked Claude Code codebase, mapping the architecture of Anthropic's agentic CLI tool. The guide visualizes the 40-tool plugin system, permission model, context management, and the relationship between the conversation loop and tool dispatch. At 637 HN points with 198 comments, this is the most accessible technical resource for understanding how a production-grade AI coding agent is actually built — a reference architecture for anyone building similar systems.
