Yesterday, Anthropic officially introduced a new way for teams to work with Claude called Claude Tag. Claude Tag is the beginning of an evolution of Claude Code and works better with a full team.

Claude Tag
Anthropic revealed that Claude Tag is now one of the main ways the company gets things done, and 65% of its product team’s code is created by the internal version of Claude Tag.
Users can tag @Claude in, and delegate tasks to it while they focus on other work. The company is initially launching Claude Tag on Slack. Slack users can tag @Claude with a request in simple terms, and it will break its task down into stages and then work through them in turn, using the tools it has access to. Once it’s done, it’ll respond in a Slack thread with what it’s created.
Tagging Claude comes with a few new advantages:
- Within a given Slack channel, there’s one Claude that interacts with everyone. This means that anyone can see what it’s working on, and can pick up the conversation from where the last person left off. It’s much more like interacting collaboratively with a teammate.
- As Claude follows along with its channel, it builds more context about the work. This means that users don’t need to explain things to it from scratch over and over again. It can also learn from other Slack channels and data sources, if granted permission.
- If “ambient’ behaviour is enabled, Claude will proactively keep you updated about whatever it thinks you might need to know, like relevant information from across the channels or follow up on threads or tasks.
- Set Claude a task, and you can focus on your other work. It can also schedule tasks for itself, pursuing a project autonomously over hours or days.
- Users can also send Claude direct messages, and it will respond privately using the personal tools and connectors you have set up.
How to set up Claude Tag?
System administrators specify which tools and information the model should have access to, in which channels. Once permissions are set, everyone can begin tagging right away. Administrators can set a limit for token spending and can view a log of everything that @Claude has done, along with who requested each task.
Pair Claude Tag with your Slack workspace, give Claude access to your tools, set a limit on your organisation’s monthly spend and test Claude in a private channel to confirm it works. Claude Tag replaces the existing Claude in the Slack app. To migrate, administrators can opt in within 30 days.
Availability
If you are a Claude Enterprise or Team customer, you have access to Claude Tag in beta. The company is issuing an introductory launch credit to eligible Enterprise and Team organisations so that the whole company can try it out.
