Claude Code accepts images from any clipboard source — screenshots, Slack messages, browser windows, and design mockups all paste directly into your prompt.
Type /model mid-session to switch from Opus to Sonnet, saving tokens on execution-heavy work without losing output quality.
Rewind bad turns instead of correcting them, so Claude never processes the wrong output and you save tokens on every subsequent message.
In iTerm2, paste clipboard images into Claude Code with Cmd+V — first capture a screenshot to your clipboard with Ctrl+Shift+Cmd+4 instead of the default Cmd+Shift+4.
In Ghostty, use Ctrl+Shift+Cmd+4 to copy a screen region to clipboard, then Ctrl+V (not Cmd+V) to paste it directly into Claude Code.
Run Claude Code directly inside Cursor, VS Code, or any editor with an integrated terminal — keep your editor and AI session in a single window.
