“Claude Code, Cowork and Codex #6: Claude Code Auto Use and Full Cowork Computer Use” by Zvi


Listen Later

Whatever else you think about Anthropic's agentic coding department, they ship.

The highlights of this edition are three related big upgrades.

You can use Dispatch to command Claude Code and Claude Cowork from your phone, or use channels to do it via places such as Telegram or Discord.

Claude Cowork now can outright use your keyboard and mouse, giving it access to actual everything one can do with a computer if it is competent to do so.

Claude Code now has auto mode, where a classifier checks commands and you only get asked for permission when something seems genuinely risky.

These are rather large quality of life improvements.
