Command reference ยท Claude Code
/radio
Opens 'Claude FM' lo-fi radio in the browser.
/radio opens "Claude FM", a lo-fi radio stream, in your default browser โ as background music while you work with Claude Code. The command needs no arguments; just type /radio in a running session.
If no browser is available โ for example in a pure SSH session or a container without a graphical interface โ Claude Code instead prints the stream URL as text in the terminal, which you can open manually in any player. According to the docs, the command is not available on Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud's Agent Platform, Microsoft Foundry, and Claude Platform on AWS. According to Anthropic's weekly recap (Week 27, June 29 โ July 3, 2026), /radio was newly added with releases v2.1.195โv2.1.201.
โ WHEN TO USE IT?
Listen to music in the background while coding
Run /radio to start Claude FM in the browser while Claude works on a task in the background.
No browser at hand, open the stream URL yourself
Run /radio in an SSH session and paste the printed stream URL into a separate audio player.
โ WHEN NOT TO?
Working on Bedrock, Vertex, Foundry, or Claude Platform on AWS
According to the docs, /radio is not available on these four platforms.
Better: Start your own music app or player separately.

According to Anthropic's weekly recap, /radio was only added with releases v2.1.195โv2.1.201; in older versions the command doesn't exist yet.
