Claude Code (Anthropic's agentic CLI tool) was missing from the agents directory. This adds a new page covering its unique capabilities for AL development: - Terminal-native agentic execution with file system access - MCP extensibility for BC-specific tooling - CLAUDE.md project context files - Build-verify-fix loops - VS Code extension integration Also updates the index page with Claude Code in the agent listing, comparison matrix (with new Agentic Execution, MCP, Shell/Build rows), and recommendation sections.

Summary
The AI Coding Agents section currently covers GitHub Copilot, Copilot Chat, Claude (web/API), and Cursor — but is missing Claude Code, Anthropic's agentic CLI tool that works fundamentally differently from the Claude web interface.
This PR adds:
New page:
claude-code-agent.md— Covers Claude Code's unique capabilities for AL development:al.build, reads errors, fixes, retries)Updated
_index.md:The page follows the same structure and detail level as the existing agent pages.
Why this matters
Claude Code represents a different category of AI coding tool — it's not a chat interface or an inline completer, but an agentic tool that reads/writes files, runs commands, and iterates autonomously. AL developers using it today have no reference page on alguidelines.dev.
