Claude Code IDE for Sublime Text

**English** | [日本語](./README.ja.md)

**Run six Claude Code sessions in parallel and still know what changed where.** Native [Claude Code](https://claude.com/product/claude-code) integration for Sublime Text 4: a **Recent Activity** pane lists every file your sessions touched — grouped project → session → file, one click to open — next to in-editor diff review (accept/reject), live selection sharing and `@`-mentions, over the same WebSocket/MCP protocol as the official VS Code and JetBrains extensions.

**Unofficial community plugin** — not affiliated with or endorsed by Anthropic. "Claude" and "Claude Code" are trademarks of Anthropic, PBC.

Package Control listing is pending; the manual install below works today.

Motivation — why Sublime Text in the LLM era?

Now that an agent writes much of the code, what should an editor be? Our answer:

  • Trivially extensible by you. In an LLM-first workflow, the editor is personal infrastructure: when Claude can write a Sublime plugin in minutes, a scriptable Python API beats a marketplace of prebuilt features. You compose exactly the cockpit you want — this plugin itself is proof.
  • No bundled AI, by choice. AI-native IDEs (Cursor, Windsurf,
