About Claude
Sonnet 5 and cross-device Cowork push Claude from chat toward always-on agent
Claude's changelog centers on two moves: the Sonnet 5 launch, its most agentic Sonnet model, and Cowork going cross-device with remotely-run sessions that persist across web, desktop, and mobile. Around them is a thick layer of enterprise administration (model entitlements, custom admin roles, Trusted Devices for remote Code control) and connector depth, most notably write access for the Microsoft 365 connector. Consumer touches like a monthly recap and break reminders round out the window.
