Claude Code (Unofficial Source Extraction)

This is NOT an official Anthropic repository.

This repository contains the extracted TypeScript source code of Anthropic's Claude Code CLI tool. The source was obtained by unpacking the source map (cli.js.map) bundled with the officially published npm package.

npm package: @anthropic-ai/claude-code v2.1.88
Official homepage: github.com/anthropics/claude-code

Why does this exist?

Anthropic publishes Claude Code as a bundled JavaScript CLI on npm. The published package includes a source map file (cli.js.map) that contains the original TypeScript source. This repository simply extracts and preserves that source for easier reading and reference.

How to get it yourself

Clone this repository

git clone git@github.com:chatgptprojects/claude-code.git
cd claude-code

Or extract it yourself from npm

Install the package:

mkdir claude-code-extract && cd claude-code-extract
npm pack @anthropic-ai/claude-code@2.1.88
tar -xzf anthropic-ai-claude-code-2.1.88.tgz
cd package

Run the unpack script:

Create a file called unpack.mjs:

import { readFileSync, writeFileSync, mkdirSync } from "fs";
import { dirname, join } from "path";

const mapFile = join(import.meta.dirname, "cli.js.map");
const outDir = join(import.meta.dirname, "unpacked");

console.log("Reading source map...");
const map = JSON.parse(readFileSync(mapFile, "utf-8"));

const sources = map.sources || [];
const contents = map.sourcesContent || [];

console.log(`Found ${sources.length} source files.`);

let written = 0;
let skipped = 0;

for (let i = 0; i < sources.length; i++) {
  const src = sources[i];
  const content = contents[i];

  if (content == null) {
    skipped++;
    continue;
  }

  const outPath = join(outDir, src.replace(/^\.\.\//g, ""));
  mkdirSync(dirname(outPath), { recursive: true });
  writeFileSync(outPath, content);
  written++;
}

console.log(`Done! Wrote ${written} files to ${outDir}`);
if (skipped > 0) console.log(`Skipped ${skipped} files with no content.`);

Run it:

node unpack.mjs

The extracted source will be in the unpacked/ directory.
