What is the main difference between Claude Tag and the old Claude in Slack?

Claude Tag creates a single shared Claude per channel that all members can see and collaborate with, rather than individual chats. The model builds context by following channel activity over time, and with ambient mode enabled, it can proactively surface relevant information and follow up on stalled tasks.

Who can use Claude Tag right now?

Claude Tag is available in beta for Claude Enterprise and Team customers. Admins have 30 days to migrate from the older "Claude in Slack" app.

What can admins control about how Claude Tag works?

Admins define which tools and data the model can access in each channel, creating separate Claude identities for different purposes with memories limited to their respective channels. Admins can also set token limits and review a full log of every action, including who triggered it.

3 Key Points

What happened
Anthropic introduced Claude Tag, a new Slack integration that lets teams tag @Claude in channels to assign tasks. Admins grant the model access to selected channels, tools, and data sources; team members then describe work in plain language, and Claude breaks tasks into steps, executes them, and reports results in a thread.
Why it matters
Rather than one-on-one chat, Claude Tag creates a shared AI assistant per channel that all members can see and collaborate with, building context over time. Internally, Anthropic reports that an early version already generates 65 percent of the code on its product team, suggesting the tool can meaningfully augment engineering workflows.
What to watch
Claude Tag is available now in beta for Claude Enterprise and Team customers. It replaces the older "Claude in Slack" app, with a 30-day migration window for admins. The tool runs on Opus 4.8.
