Claude Code beta integration brings agentic coding directly into Slack
Summary
Anthropic’s Claude Code tool is now available in Slack as a beta research preview, allowing developers to tag @Claude in coding-related messages so that entire tasks are delegated to a Claude Code session. The integration can read conversation context, select linked repositories, diagnose bugs, implement small features and return pull requests while streaming updates back into the original Slack thread, potentially reshaping how engineering teams triage and resolve work.
