Claude Projects cloud sessions can now connect to a local folder on your machine. The session stays in the cloud and only accesses the approved folder when a task requires it, reading and editing files in place. Rolling out today.
A signup link is now available for users who want early access to the broader Claude Projects rollout, which includes local folder access from cloud sessions.
A user suggested the Claude Code spinner needs to support longer durations after Opus ran for over ten days. The team lead confirmed a fix is coming.
A user complained that the Claude Tag admin dashboard was confusing despite having only three subsections. An Anthropic team member responded that a new UI has shipped and asked for feedback.
A new experimental plugin produces HTML-based plans in Claude Code with plain-language summaries, inline code snippets, surfaced questions, and UI mockups. Linting is included to reduce common Claude planning failures. Feedback is being gathered before a broader rollout.
The experimental HTML plan plugin highlights call stack visualization and inline code annotation as standout features. Both were surfaced as particularly useful for understanding plans at a glance.
A user worried that HTML-based plans would burn through tokens faster than plain text. The plugin uses pre-built components rather than raw HTML, making token usage roughly comparable to Markdown.
A user flagged the HTML plan UI as visually chaotic, citing inconsistent font sizes and scattered element positioning. The response acknowledged the feedback and noted more design work is needed.
A user flagged two areas where Codex edges out Claude Code Desktop: computer use for tasks like expense reimbursements, and easier integration with open-source models. The response was a direct acknowledgment that fixes are coming.
A user reported that on the Windows desktop app, the effort level can only be set at the project level, not per conversation thread. An Anthropic team member flagged this to the rest of the team.
