Open the Claude mobile app with a link (original) (raw)

The Claude mobile apps for iOS and Android respond to the claude:// URL scheme. Third-party apps, shortcuts, and web pages can use these links to open the Code tab, jump to an existing session, or prefill the new-session composer. All parameter values must be URL-encoded.

Open the Code tab

claude://code

Opens the Code tab on the session list.

Open an existing Code session

claude://code/{session-id}

Opens an existing Claude Code session by ID. If the ID is unknown, you'll land on the session list.

Open a new Code session

claude://code/new

With optional parameters: claude://code/new?q=Fix%20the%20failing%20test&repo=anthropics%2Fclaude-code&branch=main

Opens the new-session composer, optionally prefilled. All parameters are optional.

The same Code routes are also reachable via https://claude.ai/code/... universal links. If the app is installed, the operating system opens it; otherwise the link opens in the browser.
