Overview
- The rollout, announced Monday, is a macOS-only research preview limited to Claude Pro and Max subscribers.
- The capability lives inside Claude Cowork and Claude Code and can be triggered from a phone through Dispatch for remote runs.
- Claude requests approval before accessing apps or folders, shows a plan for major steps, and stores Pro user history on the device.
- When no connector exists for tools like Google Workspace or Slack, Claude falls back to moving the mouse, typing, and reading the screen to finish tasks.
- Anthropic cautions the system is early and slower for complex jobs, tells users to expect retries, and says Windows support is expected in the coming weeks.
