How does Claude Code's workflow differ from GitHub Copilot?

Unlike Copilot's focus on inline autocomplete, Claude Code operates agentically—planning, searching, and executing multi-step tasks across your entire codebase based on high-level descriptions.

How do I handle automated formatting after Claude edits my code?

You can migrate IDE-specific automation to Claude Code Hooks (PostToolUse) to automatically run commands like 'npm run format' after file edits.

What is the best way to share Claude Code settings with my team?

The migration guide recommends committing .claude/settings.json and CLAUDE.md to your version control system to ensure consistent rules and tools across the team.

Can I use my existing Cursor rules in Claude Code?

Yes, this skill provides a mapping to migrate .cursorrules content directly into a CLAUDE.md file, which Claude Code uses for persistent project context.
