Today is a big day! We're launching a ~ new ~ version of Claude Code in the desktop app. It's been redesigned from the ground up for parallel work and is a lot faster. It's been my main way to use Claude Code for the last few weeks. [video]

The new Claude Code desktop app is sick. You NEED to be testing this Fully customizable interface, multi tasking, organizaed by project, built in routines, integrated with Cowork and chat Here's what I'd set up first: • Start a session in each of your projects so they're all [ima…

Please please please... I don't care about new bloated features and locking in users into uncustomizable harnesses. Make Claude Code reliable, usage metrics clearer, tos unambiguous, allow third party use and you can happily bump the fee to match OpenAI. Everything else...

New version of Claude Code in the desktop app dropped today with tons of new features and performance improvements. Between Cowork and Code, I've found I don't really need to open other apps (or even my terminal) to do most of my work now.

Some of the new features: An integrated terminal, in-app file editing, a rebuilt diff viewer, side chats, SSH connections - and a large amount of little quality of life. Download or update the Claude desktop app to get started: https://claude.com/...

It looks like everyone is finally catching up with the fact that agent sessions in CLI mode can only get you so far. It makes sense that the new Codex app, Cursor, and Claude Code (desktop) feel and look pretty similar now. This UI convergence is not an accident. This is a [image…

The Claude Code team gave me early access to the new version of Claude Code Desktop and I've been using it for the past few days... here's what I've liked most about this new version 1- Panel creation and the ability to run agents simultaneously. This makes me think we'll [video]

claude code just shipped routines you tell it what to do, point it at your project, set a trigger, and it runs 24/7 on their servers with your laptop closed i immediately thought of larry ellison: “the money is never in the technology, it's in the infrastructure the technology

I'm enjoying using the new Claude Code app (RIP terminal). How can I work on the same session across the Claude mobile app too? /remote-control doesn't seem to work and tbh I shouldn't have to type this to work across desktop + mobile anyway. [image]

The redesign also adds an integrated terminal, file editing, HTML and PDF preview, and a faster diff viewer, all in a drag-and-drop layout you can arrange to your preference. Your CLI plugins work exactly as they do on the command line.

These guys are just shipping 10x faster than anybody else right now. There seems to be a lack of both focus and urgency everywhere else. I don't know why... but it's a bit weird.

Claude Code is redesigning the IDE for agentic coding. As Andrej said: “We're going to need a bigger IDE. The basic unit is not a file, but an agent.” Cursor now has to fight to define that future of IDE too.

The new Claude Code desktop app feels fast and responsive. The mode selector is in a much better spot in the sidebar instead of the header. I also like the denser layout, refined style and typography 🖤great work @amorriscode

Now in research preview: routines in Claude Code. Configure a routine once (a prompt, a repo, and your connectors), and it can run on a schedule, from an API call, or in response to an event. Routines run on our web infrastructure, so you don't have to keep your laptop open. [ima…
