A comprehensive Claude Code cheat sheet has been released, featuring auto-updating daily commands for Anthropic's CLI tool. The reference covers everything from basic navigation with CtrlC/CtrlD to advanced features like MCP server management and permission modes. Key shortcuts include CtrlL for clearing screen, CtrlO for toggling verbose output, and CtrlR for reverse search history.

The cheat sheet details multiple transport options including HTTP, stdio, and SSE for connecting to Claude Code. It outlines configuration files across three levels: global ~/.claude.json, project-specific .mcp.json, and user ~/.claude.json. Environment variables like ANTHROPIC_API_KEY and CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL are documented alongside model overrides and custom settings.

Advanced capabilities include worktree isolation for parallel development, batch operations across 5-30 worktrees, and voice commands in 20 languages. The sheet covers planning mode, debugging tools, and remote control features. With support for 1M context tokens and compact mode for ~95% capacity, this reference serves as an essential guide for developers leveraging Claude Code's full potential.
