Anthropic’s AI coding assistant, Claude Code, is getting a new feature designed to help developers identify and resolve bugs faster and more efficiently. Aptly named Code Review, the feature automatically analyzes code changes, flags potential issues, and provides actionable feedback before the code is merged.

Anthropic explains that when a pull request (PR) is opened, Code Review “dispatches a team of agents that look for bugs in parallel, verify bugs to filter out false positives, and rank bugs by severity. The result lands on the PR as a single high-signal overview comment, plus in-line comments for specific bugs.”

The company adds that the multi-agent review system scales dynamically based on the PR. It assigns more agents and deeper analysis to larger or more complex changes, while smaller updates get a lighter review. Based on Anthropic’s testing, the system typically completes an average PR review in about 20 minutes.

The feature was developed to streamline internal operations after Anthropic saw the amount of code generated per engineer grow by 200% over the last year. The company now uses the system on nearly every PR and reports a significant increase in substantive review comments.

Following successful internal testing, Code Review is now rolling out to Claude for Teams and Enterprise subscribers in research preview. While powerful, the tool is considerably more expensive than lightweight alternatives like the Claude Code GitHub Action, and it is billed on token usage.

Premium pricing for in-depth reviews

Anthropic reveals that code reviews with the new tool average somewhere between $15 and $25, scaling with PR size and complexity. To help admins manage costs, the company is offering monthly organization caps, repository-level restrictions, and an analytics dashboard to track PRs reviewed, acceptance rates, and total spend.

Code Review arrives as Claude Code continues to gain traction commercially. The tool’s run-rate revenue has reportedly surpassed $2.5 billion since launch, more than doubling since early 2026. Furthermore, business subscriptions have quadrupled since the start of the year, with enterprise customers now accounting for over half of Claude Code’s total revenue.

Google’s next Googlebook could make your Android tablets feel outdated

Googlebooks are moving beyond traditional laptops, and the next one might look more like a tablet.

Computer, Electronics, Laptop

Googlebooks have only been around for a little over a month, but Google is already looking beyond traditional laptops. The company has confirmed that detachable Googlebooks are on the way, meaning we could soon see devices that work as both a tablet and a laptop without carrying two separate gadgets.

The announcement came during the Android Dev Summit 2026, where Google outlined its plans to expand the Googlebook lineup beyond the clamshell and convertible designs currently available. While the company hasn't revealed an official launch date or shown any hardware, an earlier leak suggests Lenovo could be the first manufacturer to bring one to market.

Meta is already working on its second-gen humanoid robot, but don’t expect it to land in homes anytime soon

Meta wants a robot to do your chores, but it still has to learn how to climb stairs

Meta appears to be getting serious about bringing artificial intelligence out of the screen and into the physical world. The company has built a humanoid robot prototype with Chinese robotics firm Fourier, and it is already developing a second-generation version. However, before anyone starts imagining a robot folding laundry or handling household chores, there is a fairly important caveat: this is still research and development, with no launch date in sight.

According to The Information, which cited people familiar with the project, Meta and Fourier built the prototype, internally called Max, in around three months. The roughly 48kg robot is part of Meta's broader ambition to develop humanoids that could eventually carry out everyday tasks in people's homes.

Anthropic cracks down on video game cloning with new Claude restrictions

Claude can still help develop original games, but copying existing titles is now off the table.

AI has been making its way into video game development for a while now, but the recent developments have started raising some serious concerns. Popular games are being reverse-engineered with AI assistance, recreated for web browsers, and made playable on platforms they were never released for. Between all that, indie developers have started pulling down their demos over fears of getting copied. Anthropic has now stepped in with new restrictions for Claude Code.

The change was first spotted on X and subsequently confirmed by Anthropic's Addy Osmani. The new instructions prevent Claude from recreating specific existing games, even if they are renamed or presented as original projects. Users can still make original games, work on games within a genre, and use their own designs and assets.
