Anthropic has introduced Claude Tag, an AI agent that operates within Slack and works alongside teams, leveraging shared workplace context. Users can mention @Claude in a channel to request information or assign a task. The feature is entering beta for Claude Team and Enterprise customers. Unlike earlier Claude integrations, Claude Tag can retain relevant information from channel discussions, use approved workplace tools, and proactively follow up on unfinished work. Claude Tag adds persistent context and memory. Everyone in an approved Slack channel works with the same Claude identity. System administrators decide which channels, information, and tools Claude can access. When a user assigns Claude a task, it divides the work into stages and completes them using the tools available to it. Claude Tag also includes an ambient mode that allows it to participate without waiting for a direct mention. Anthropic says this approach is intended to make Claude operate more like a colleague whose work and progress remain visible to the team.
