I talk to engineers at other companies every day and hear the same thing: one person is 10x'ing their output with Claude but the rest of the org hasn't caught up. Watching teams adopt AI, I keep seeing the same 4 steps. I mapped them out here: Steps of AI Adoption https://t.co/kQnRAUMKpP
Something I have been thinking about: in the past, the best engineers I knew spent a lot of time automating their work in various ways. (1/14)

This is our first time telling the story of how we first built and launched Claude Code, starting with its origins in Anthropic safety research. So much more to do. We are 1% done.
Artifacts in Claude Code have been life changing. Excited to expand to Pro and Max!
You asked, we listened. Claude Desktop on Linux is here! Download link: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/desktop-linux
In the next version of Claude Code: subagents run in the background by default, so you can keep talking to Claude while your subagents work If you want your agent to run in the foreground, just tell Claude
As engineering, product, design, DS, etc. melt into a new kind of role, I was reflecting on what roles might look like in the future. For example, when I look at the Claude Code team I see what I think is five archetypes: (1/6)
We're launching Claude Tag today. Tag Claude into Slack and it works in channel with you. It’s proactive, multiplayer, with its own identity and memory. But it’s not just a bot in Slack. Over the last few months, it’s totally changed how we use Claude
Cool way to use Claude Code: deciphering Linear A, a 3500 year old written language from Crete https://aiclambake.com/clamtakes/linear-a/ Hope this holds up in peer review! 🤞

I've been using Artifacts in Claude Code for everything: visual explanations of tricky code, system diagrams, quick previews of a few animation options, data analyses and dashboards I share with the team. They are a game changer for how I work with Claude. Can't wait to hear what you think!
Fable 5 is the biggest step up I’ve felt in our models since Opus 4.5 back in November. After 4.5 came out I uninstalled my IDE when I realized that I’d been doing 100% of my coding in a terminal for a few weeks. (1/4)
We talk a lot about how important it is to set up self-verification loops. (1/3)
Fable 5 is now available in Claude Code and Cowork (1/2)
Just landed nested subagent support in Claude Code Starting to experiment more with agents kicking off agents as a way to better manage context. Capped at depth=5 to start, going out in today’s release. Lmk what you think!
When we first demoed Claude Code internally, it got two reactions on Slack. (1/2)
Seeing a number of benchmarks showing Opus is the best model for long-running work. Five tips for running Opus autonomously for hours/days: (1/4)
We doubled Claude Cowork usage limits for the next month. This applies to your 5-hr rate limits. If you’ve been saving up a big messy project, now’s the time.
Salesforce published a detailed writeup on going agentic with Claude Code. A couple things jumped out. A migration they'd scoped at 231 days shipped in 13. One PR delivered 21 endpoints at 100% test coverage.
Claude Opus 4.8 is out today. It's our strongest coding model yet: up on SWE-bench Pro (from 64.3 to 69.2) and noticeably more honest about its own work. It tells you when it's unsure and catches its own bugs instead of declaring victory early. Same price as 4.7.

People often ask what my biggest tip is for getting the most out of Claude Code. These days my #1 tip is: use auto mode Auto mode means no more permission prompts. It is the key building block for multi-clauding: start a session, then while it runs, work on another session in parallel.
Big fan of teaching more people the basics of using Claude Code in an accessible way. So much of the world has not yet used agents. There's a lot of opportunity to level the playing field and expand access.
In the next version of Claude Code: run /usage to see a breakdown of which Skills, Agents, MCPs, and Plugins are using your tokens CLI today, coming to Desktop next
