Anthropic accidentally leaked source code for its Claude Code AI tool
AI company Anthropic accidentally exposed approximately 500,000 lines of source code for its Claude Code assistant tool when it uploaded the complete source code to NPM instead of just the compiled version. This was the second significant data leak for the company in less than a week, following an earlier incident where nearly 3,000 internal files were made publicly accessible. Rep. Josh Gottheimer questioned the company about its safety protocols following the leak.
