Anthropic unveiled Claude Tag, a Slack-based feature that places Claude inside a workspace as a team member with access to selected channels and tools. In the company’s announcement, Claude is described as a way to delegate tasks in-thread while other work continues elsewhere.
The company says Claude Tag is an evolution of Claude Code, but “more proactive” and designed to work with a full team. Anthropic also claims that its internal version now generates 65% of the product team’s code, a figure that should be treated as a company-reported metric rather than an independent benchmark.
According to the launch posts, tagging Claude in a request prompts it to break the work into stages, use the tools it can reach, and respond back in the thread with what it creates. Anthropic says that can include writing or merging pull requests, running data analysis, or helping resolve an incident.
The Slack setup is designed to preserve continuity across a channel. Anthropic says there is “one Claude” in a channel that can interact with everyone, building context over time so teammates do not have to restate everything from scratch. The company also says an “ambient behavior” mode can make Claude follow up on quiet threads and surface relevant items across channels and tools.
Claude Tag is available in beta today on Slack for Claude Enterprise and Team plans, with wider availability planned later.
