You can now @ mention @Claude in Slack like a coworker, hand it a task, and walk away while it works.
The detail that stood out to me: Anthropic says 65% of its own team’s code already goes through this. Here’s what it actually does:
Introducing Claude Tag, a new way for teams to work with Claude.
In Slack, Claude joins as a team member with access to the channels and tools you choose. Tag Claude in and delegate tasks to it while you focus on other work.
@K9Aasim That stat reframes the whole adoption debate. Most people are still arguing about whether AI can write production code, and Anthropic is quietly shipping the majority of theirs through it. The conversation’s already moved past where the discourse is.

It remembers how your team operates, picks up jobs anyone hands it, and can even jump in unprompted to flag things people forgot. The tell: Anthropic says 65% of its own team’s code already runs through it.
The real shift isn’t the feature, it’s that AI is moving from a tool you open to a coworker you assign work to. Would you trust it to act on its own?

Honest take: the real shift isn’t the feature, it’s the framing. AI is moving from “a tool you open” to “a coworker you assign work to and trust to act on its own.” Anthropic running 65% of its own code through it is them eating their own cooking.
Would you let an AI proactively jump into your team’s chat unprompted? That’s the line I’d want to think hard about. Where’s yours?

The part that raises eyebrows: an “ambient” mode where it jumps in on its own, flagging relevant updates from across the company and chasing tasks people forgot. Useful, but it’s an AI choosing when to speak up, not just answering when asked.
