Persistent agent

Claude Cowork

Claude's agent for knowledge work: hand it a task and it works through it in the cloud (or on your desktop for local files, browser and computer use), runs scheduled tasks with no device online, and lets you check in from your phone; since 2026-09-16 it is merged into the main Claude app for Pro and Max.
