contents The power spectrum is the most commonly applied summary statistics to extract cosmological information from the observed three-dimensional distribution of galaxies in spectroscopic surveys. We present CLASS-OneLoop, a new numerical tool, fully integrated into the Boltzmann code CLASS, enabling the calculation of the one-loop power spectrum of biased tracers in spectroscopic surveys. Built upon the Eulerian moment expansion framework for redshift-space distortions, the implemented model incorporates a complete set of nonlinear biases, counterterms, and stochastic contributions, and includes the infrared resummation and the Alcock-Paczynski effect. The code features an evaluation of the loops by either direct numerical integration or Fast Fourier Transform, and employs a fast-slow parameter decomposition, which is essential for accelerating MCMC runs. After presenting performance and validation tests, as an illustration of the capabilities of the code, we apply it to fit the measured redshift-space halo power spectrum wedges on a $Λ$CDM subset of the AbacusSummit simulation suite and considering scales up to $k_{\rm max} = 0.3\,h/$Mpc. We find that the one-loop model adeptly recovers the fiducial cosmology of the simulation, while a simplified model commonly used in the literature for sensitivity forecasts yields significantly biased results. Furthermore, we conduct Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) forecasts for a DESI-like survey, considering a model with a dynamical dark energy component. Our results demonstrate the ability to independently constrain cosmological and nuisance parameters, even in the presence of a large parameter space with twenty-nine variables.
