Claude Code cloud sessions guide ships as Pro/Max users can claim $100/$250 bonus credit until Oct 7

Anthropic DX lead Lydia Hallie shared Addy Osmani's 18-minute field guide to Claude Code cloud sessions on claude.dev, along with a limited-time credit offer.
- What cloud sessions are: each task runs on a fresh VM with the repo cloned to a new branch and environment pre-configured — work survives laptop sleep and dropped Wi-Fi, and no longer fights over files or ports.
- Entry points: start from claude.ai/code, the mobile app, Desktop, terminal, or Slack; track progress anywhere; finished work lands on a branch ready for a PR.
- Pricing: included free with Pro/Max/Team/Enterprise plans, drawing on the same usage limits.
- Bonus credit: Pro users can claim a one-time $100 and Max users $250 for cloud sessions via /claim-credit or claude.ai/code/claim-credit before October 7; credits expire November 4.
- The guide includes full transcripts, diffs, and timings from four real cloud sessions, seven workflows that suit them, and first-try GitHub connection tips.
