Why This Track Matters

Opcode gives teams a visual layer on top of Claude Code sessions and agent workflows, which is valuable for tracking progress, coordinating work, and reducing terminal-only overhead.

This track focuses on:

  • setting up Opcode and Claude Code together
  • managing projects/sessions/agents from one dashboard
  • using MCP and checkpoint features for safer iteration
  • operating Opcode in secure, production-adjacent workflows
