# Anthropic Embeds Claude Tag Inside Slack Channels > Source: > Published: 2026-06-29 00:56:01+00:00 Editorial analysis: For AI practitioners, embedding always-on agents inside collaboration platforms shifts where models operate in the stack and raises new operational, security, and governance work for engineering and ML teams. According to Anthropic's product announcement and Reuters reporting, Anthropic launched Claude Tag, a beta feature that lets teams summon an AI agent into Slack threads by typing @Claude, where it can read channel context, retain memory, break tasks into stages, run scheduled work, and surface follow-ups. Anthropic's product page and blog report that Claude Tag can be connected to tools and data sources admins permit, and that it is available in beta for Claude Enterprise and Claude Team on Slack. Anthropic's announcement included the claim that "Tagging @Claude is now one of the main ways we get things done at Anthropic. Today, 65% of our product team's code is created by our internal version of Claude Tag," (Anthropic blog). Reporting in The Next Web and The Information notes internal unease at Salesforce about promoting a third-party agent inside Slack; data governance and regulatory compliance remain key friction points for enterprise adoption in regulated jurisdictions.
