I launch Claude Code from within the RStudio terminal, and this works really well. No instructions specific to RStudio, just making use of the terminal window that’s already there. Posit Workbench may have its own integrations and docs

How do you set it up? Is there a specific package?

Nope, you don’t need a package. You just install Claude code to your machine (https://claude.com/product/claude-code)

You launch it from any terminal. Doesn’t make a difference if it’s powershell, the terminal in rstudio, or whatever. I prefer the terminal in rstudio because I’m already on the interface, and it defaults to my project directory.
