We’re opening a research preview of Claude Duet, a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent.
It comes to you with what needs your attention, completes tasks you ask of it, keeps working when you step away, and checks with you before it acts on your behalf.
Today is an unprecedented and incredibly exciting moment for @Musixmatch as we're sharing we've completed the acquisition of @MusicReportsInc , Inc 🚀
@MusicReportsInc , Inc has spent decades doing the work the music business runs on: royalty data, rights administration and cue sheets for the digital services and TV groups that need to get paid, and pay others, correctly.
SongDex, TrackDex, CueTrak and now @BlokurHQ will become part of Musixmatch's offering.
At @Musixmatch we've spent over a decade on lyrics and metadata. Bringing that together with Music Reports, Inc rights and royalty data opens the door to what comes next:
🤖 Agentic Royalty Management, where the slow, manual parts of royalty processing and cue sheets are automated, so creators and rights holders get paid more accurately and sooner.
So proud of this ! And thank you to anyone being part of this.
We've been working hard on making the Claude Code desktop app great for running lots of sessions side by side.
It's now much quicker to start sessions, easier to split work across a few, and you can always see what each of them is doing. Here’s what's new:
Drake taking Ella Langley’s No. 1 spot with her own lyrics? That’s a chart twist 💥
From “Choosin’ Texas” to “Solar Eclipse,” one lyric connects @ellalangleymsic and @drake, almost as if Drake is taking Ella’s story into its next chapter.
So, whose version are you choosin’? 1/3
We're adding a new plugin to Claude Code: You should Know.
It scans Claude's output for important information you might miss to help keep you in the loop.
Enable it with:
/plugin enable cc-plugin-you-should-know@builtin
Dots are here!

Claude Sonnet 5.5 is out! We wrote a guide for building with it:
• choosing between Sonnet 5.5 and Opus 5.5
• migrating from Sonnet 5 and tuning effort
• using it in Claude Code

Claude has discovered a previously unknown enzyme system hidden in the DNA of bacteriophages. Beside the enzyme’s gene sits a long array of repeating DNA—a structure that looks somewhat similar to CRISPR.
We don’t yet understand what this system does, but only a handful of known systems share its features, and all of them are able to cut, copy, and paste DNA. Historically, the discovery of such programmable systems has helped revolutionize medicine. CRISPR, for instance, is now the foundation of genetic medicines. But it will take much more work to learn what this system does, and whether it can be put to similar use.

It's pencils down, people. Writing code by hand is no longer an economically viable skill for most programmers at most companies. But the future of making software has never been brighter. Don't you dare black pill this beautiful moment! https://t.co/qaCgfmkW0u
For @postmalone, songwriting is a numbers game.
He sings over beats until a melody clicks, then writes lyrics down and repeats the process.
Sometimes you have to make a hundred songs to find the ones worth keeping.
Is quantity the key to quality?
1/3 👇
Try these in your first Opus 5.5 session:
→ Hand over a whole task. Define "done" and when to check in.
→ Drop "think carefully". It always thinks first.
→ After a long run, check what it needs to go further.

I was not expecting things to go this way, but I think MCPs are better than CLIs for most integrations.
The models have gotten much better at tool calling, we can defer tools & MCP is now stateless.
If you need to compose/filter data, add params like query to your MCP tools.
At Anthropic, Claude now writes 80% of our code. Engineers ship 8x more code per quarter.
Side effect: Tests grew 10x. CI jobs up 25x in 6 months. Here's what helped us scale:

Friday's Charts have entered a new era, just like MILEY 📈
"Bass Persuades" kicks off @miley’s latest chapter at No. 1, ahead of her upcoming album. @stellalefty is also back in the charts with "Boston." Is it the nepo-baby talk or the Noah Kahan interpolation behind it?
@blakeir you can just paste this prompt into Claude
"Interview me in-depth about my life using the AskUserQuestion tool and save it all to memory"
but most users aren't willing to do a full interview in onboarding
Future vs. Young Thug 💥
What does a decade of lyrics reveal about the worlds they came from and created?
@1future makes pain luxury while @youngthug makes chaos art
