- Anthropic announced a new feature allowing Claude users to call up interactive apps within the chatbot interface.
- The initial apps include workplace tools like Slack, Canva, Figma, Box, and Clay, with Salesforce coming soon.
- The feature is available to Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise subscribers, but not free users.
- The system is built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an open standard introduced by Anthropic in 2024.
- The new apps can be integrated with Claude Cowork, an all-purpose agent tool launched by Anthropic last week.
- Anthropic advises caution when granting permissions to Claude, especially for sensitive information.
