Anthropic is merging Claude Cowork and chat into one Claude experience: ask a quick question or hand off a report, keep work running after you close the laptop, and Claude asks when unclear while you keep final say. Existing Cowork chats, projects, artifacts, connectors, and skills carry over; Claude Design, Slides, and Docs are in beta on paid plans, rolling out to Pro and Max over the next few weeks.
