Anthropic published a case study showing how Alberta's Ministry of Technology deployed ~50 parallel Claude agents to scan 466 million lines of code in 20 hours — work estimated to take 6.5 years manually. The project also used Claude to generate fixes, write tests, and rebuild a Java portal in four days that originally took five months.

Why it matters

One of the most concrete large-scale government deployments of agentic AI on record, illustrating Claude Code's viability for critical infrastructure security at national scale.
