## Summary

Anthropic says Claude can now open supported connected tools beside a conversation or in full screen, and make changes directly in them. Users approve Claude's actions as they would for any connector, and changes appear live in the tool. The feature rolls out on the web and desktop app on all plans, and developers can use MCP Apps extensions in public preview.
