Claude/Code/Q/Does aqua have a package for the native installer of claude code

• Does aqua have a package for the native installer of Claude/Code?

• Answer

  • AI/Response
    • Yes. The canonical registry entry is anthropics/claude-code (pkgs/anthropics/claude-code/registry.yaml in aquaproj/aqua-registry).
    • What it installs: the package is declared with type: http, not as an npm artifact. It downloads the claude raw binary from Anthropic’s Google Cloud Storage release bucket (claude-code-releases/...), i.e. the same native binary distribution channel used by the standalone installer story, not the @anthropic-ai/claude-code npm package.
    • How mise wires it: the upstream tool shortname claude lists aqua:anthropics/claude-code for Linux and macOS, with separate backends for the direct HTTP template and for npm on other targets; see registry/claude.toml in jdx/mise.
    • Platform caveat: the aqua-registry file’s supported_envs for this package are Darwin and Linux in the published YAML; Windows is handled in mise via the http:claude / npm:@anthropic-ai/claude-code backends in that same claude.toml, not via the aqua stanza. So “aqua has the native-style package” is accurate for macOS/Linux; on Windows, use those other backends or install paths unless the registry gains Windows coverage later.
